Embers Lyrics by James Arthur
[Verse 1]
All that I wanted
Wasn't all that you needed
Did you find a place in the city
Stone's throw from the Underground
The adrenaline rush that you always talked about?
[Verse 2]
I'm still not healing
'Cause you're the one that I should be with
A two-up two-down and a garden
Three kids and our parents around
All the simple dreams that we always talked about
[Chorus]
I think about you now and then, it hurts me a little
And I'm sorry, but it haunts me a little
I wish we could've found a way to meet in the middle
And it's tragic that even now
I can't let go
[Verse 3]
I'm reminded of you in Septembers
Oh, yeah
Whеn we fell like thе autumn leaves, oh, aye
You're the fire that died, I'm the embers
Oh, yeah
You're the other half of me, oh, aye
[Pre-Chorus]
Are you with somebody somewhere?
Did you find a better me?
Is your life without me all that you hoped it would be?
Oh, aye
[Chorus]
I think about you now and then, it hurts me a little
And I'm sorry, but it haunts me a little
I wish we could've found a way to meet in the middle
And it's tragic that, even now (Even now, babe)
I can't let go
(No, I—)
[Bridge]
And I can't let go
And I want you to know, woah, I
[Chorus]
I think about you now and then, it hurts me a little (It hurts me a little)
And I'm sorry, but it haunts me a little
I wish we could've found a way to meet in the middle
And it's tragic that, even now (Even now, babe)
I can't let go
(No, I can't let go)
[Outro]
All that I wanted
Wasn't all that you needed
