Can't be love

They say love is supposed to set you free
Give you wings to fly
They say love is supposed to hold the key
To life and eternity

Ba da ba da da ba da da

So when the party's over
You suddenly get colder
And I need someone to hold me tight
And tell me everything is gonna be alright

Can't be love
'cos I'm not free 
And it ain't enough
I don't believe
Oh, believe in love
I don't believe in love
I don't believe in love

They say love has all the answers
To the questions
Well baby, I'm still lost
'cos I don't understand

Ba da ba da da ba da da 

So you can tell me that you love me
A thousand times
But for you to show me
You couldn't even if you tried

Can't be love
'cos I'm not free 
And it ain't enough
I don't believe
Oh, believe in love
Said, I don't believe in love
Believe in love
Oh, I don't believe in love
Ohhh

On the outside
I know that it would make sense
On the inside, baby
It feels strange
You go your way
I go my way
'cos it can't be 

Can't be love
'cos I'm not free
No, no, no
And it ain't enough
I don't believe
No, no, no
Can't be love
Yeah, yeah
Can't be love
No, no, no
Can't be love
Can't be love
Ohh
It can't be love

Almost everything

Said sit down with me before you go
That's the wrong thing I know
But I don't know when I will see you again
and it gets so lonely..

See you'd be foolish if you stayed here now
Maybe if you leave we could work it out
Cos i know the city only breaks you down
and it gets you lonely

see its gonna get lonely

so you miss the feeling when you step outside
yeah your mind comes all untied
and then you open up your eyes
and you don't feel lonely

 see it feels bad now but its gonna get better 
see it feels bad now but its gonna get better
see it feels bad now but its gonna get better
someday

Jar of Hearts

I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live half alive

And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are

Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are

I hear you're asking all around

If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

And I've learned to live half alive

And now you want me one more time
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/christina_perri/jar_of_hearts.html ]
And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are

Dear, it took so long just to feel alright

Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

And who do you think you are

Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are

Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

Rolling in the deep

There's a fire starting in my heart,
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark,

Finally, I can see you crystal clear,

Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your sheet bare,
See how I'll leave with every piece of you,
Don't underestimate the things that I will do,

There's a fire starting in my heart,

Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark,

The scars of your love remind me of us,

They keep me thinking that we almost had it all,
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless,
I can't help feeling,

We could have had it all,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hands,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
And you played it to the beat,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

Baby, I have no story to be told,

But I've heard one on you and I'm gonna make your head burn,
Think of me in the depths of your despair,
Make a home down there as mine sure won't be shared,

The scars of your love remind me of us,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
I can't help feeling,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

We could have had it all,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hands,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
And you played it to the beat,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

Could have had it all,

Rolling in the deep,
You had my heart inside of your hands,
But you played it with a beating,

Throw your soul through every open door,

Count your blessings to find what you look for,
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold,
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just what you've sown,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),

We could have had it all,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
We could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
It all, it all, it all,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

We could have had it all,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hands,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
And you played it to the beat,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

Could have had it all,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hands,

But you played it,

You played it,
You played it,
You played it to the beat.

(Adele - 21)
