Emeli Sande Our Version of Events (Special Lyrics
1.Heaven

Will you recognize me in those flashing lights?
I try to keep my heart clean, but I can't get it right
Will you recognize me, when I'm lying on my back
Somethings gone inside me, and I can't get it back


Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wake with good intentions,
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone!
Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wake with good intentions,
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone , then I'm gone
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone , then I'm gone

Will you recognize me, when I'm stealing from the poor
You're not gonna like me, I'm nothing like before
Will you recognize me, when I lose another friend?
Will you learn to leave me, or give me one more try again


Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wake with good intentions,
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone!
Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wake with good intentions,
But the day it always lasts too long
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone , then I'm gone
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone , then I'm gone

Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wake with good intentions,
Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wake with good intentions,
Oh heaven, oh heaven, I wake with good intentions,
You say that you're away, I try but always break
cause the day always lasts too long
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone , then I'm gone
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone , then I'm gone
Then I'm gone, then I'm gone, then I'm gone , then I'm gone


2.My Kind Of Love

I can't buy your love, don't even wanna try.
Sometimes the truth won't make you happy, so I'm not gonna lie.
But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats
only for you.
I know i'm far from perfect, nothin' like your entourage
I can't grant you any wishes, I won't promise you the stars.
But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats
only for you.
Cause when you've given up.
When no matter what you do it's never good enough.
When you never thought that it could ever get this tough,
Thats when you feel my kind of love.
And when you're crying out.
When you fall and then can't pick, you're heavy on the ground
When the friends you thought you had haven't stuck around.
That's when you feel my kind of love.
You won't see me at the parties, I guess I'm just no fun.
I won't be turning up the radio singing 'Baby You're The One'.


But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats
only for you.
I know sometimes I get angry, and I say what i don't mean.
I know I keep my heart protected, far away from my sleeve.
But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats
only for you.
Cause when you've given up.
When no matter what you do it's never good enough.
When you never thought that it could ever get this tough,
Thats when you feel my kind of love.
And when you're crying out.
When you fall and then can't pick your 'happy' off the ground
When the friends you thought you had haven't stuck around.
That's when you feel my kind of love.
Cause when you've given up.
When no matter what you do it's never good enough.
When you never thought that it could ever get this tough,
Thats when you feel my kind of love.


3.Where I Sleep

There's nowhere that I wouldn't follow,
There's nothing that I won't do for your kiss,
I love you like there's no tomorrow,
Cause nothing ever felt like this.

There's nothing I won't steal or borrow,
I'll travel on a boat or aeroplane,
I'll explore a world of sorrow,
Cause when I find you I know,
I know I'ma be OK.

See the times are changing,
And I'm sure of nothing that I know,
Except this is us, and this is love, and this is where I'm home.
In a world that's breaking, where nothing is for keeps,
Oh this is us, this is love and this is where I sleep,
This is us, this is love and this is where I sleep.

I'm from a generation undecided,
I'm restless and I can't help changing lanes,
But in all the noise and the excitement,
Your love is all that will remain,
I've said all of my goodbyes to ego,
I gambled all I got, there's no plan B,
It's the first time that I've learnt to let go,
It's the only place I feel, only place I feel like me.

See the times are changing,
I'm sure of nothing that I know,
Except this is us and this is love, and this is where I'm home.
In a world that's breaking, where nothing is for keeps,
Oh this is us, this is love and this is where I sleep.
This is us, this is love and this is where I sleep.


4.Mountains

He said I'm going to have a bed with lots of pillows
And that we're going to build a house with lots of windows
And when we have the kids we'll tell them to remind we
Of where we were and how so we never get lazy

Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together
Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together

I'd never work these hours if I didn't love you
My hands are always red and sunshine I sleep through
If you say we're going to move somewhere with neighbours less
crazy
You know I'm going to be there, because I trust my baby
Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together

Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together

I keep my fingers crossed that we're going to be able
I touch the wood for luck, on our broken table
I know that it's our heart that's going to save us
If we never come back how can they blame us?

Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together
Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together

Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together
Yeah we'll climb mountains
Climb mountains together


5.Clown

I guess it's funnier from where you're standing
'Cause from over here I've missed the joke
Cleared the way for my crash landing
I've done it again, another number for your notes
I'd be smiling if I wasn't so desperate
I'd be patient if I had the time
I could stop and answer all of your questions
As soon as I find out how I could move from the back of the line
So I'll be your clown
Behind the glass
Go 'head and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown
On your favorite channel
My life's a circus-circus rounding circles
I'm selling out tonight
I'd be less angry if it was my decision
And the money was just rolling in
If I had more than my ambition
I'll have time to please
I'll have time to thank you as soon as I win


So I'll be your clown
Behind the glass
Go 'head and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown
On your favorite channel
My life's a circus-circus rounding circles
I'm selling out tonight

From a distance my choice is simple
From a distance I can entertain
So you can see me I put makeup on my face
But there's no way you can feel it
From so far away

So I'll be your clown
Behind the glass
Go 'head and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown
On your favorite channel
My life's a circus-circus rounding circles
I'm selling out tonight


6.Daddy(feat. Naughty Boy)

He's out your system yeah it too you a while
You got your family back and you got your smile
And you promised your sister that you'd never go back again
But friends keep telling you what he did last night
How many girls he kissed how many he liked
And you try to remember that there's no way you could ever be
friends
But now you're
You're looking like you really like him like him
And now you're feeling like you miss him miss him
You're speaking like you really love him love him
And now you're dancing like you need him need him


Put it in your pocket don't tell anyone I gave you
It will be the one you run to the one that saves you
It can be your daddy daddy if you take it gladly gladly
Yeah
Daddy Daddy
He kissed you on the lips and opened your eyes
You had to catch your breath got such a surprise
And you always forgot how it feels to live in his lies
He pulled you closer said he'll never let go
You couldn't trust him but you never said no
In that moment he made you forgot how it feels when he's gone
But now you're
You're looking like you really like him like him
And now you're feeling like you miss him miss him
You're speaking like you really love him love him
And now you're dancing like you need him need him


Put it in your pocket don't tell anyone I gave you
It will be the one you run to the one that saves you
It can be your daddy daddy if you take it gladly gladly
Yeah
Daddy Daddy
You're looking like you really like him like him
And now you're feeling like you miss him miss him
You're looking like you really love him love him
And now you're dancing like you need him need him


Put it in your pocket don't tell anyone I gave you
It will be the one you run to the one that saves you
It can be your daddy daddy if you take it gladly gladly
Yeah
Daddy Daddy

7.Maybe

When we first moved in together
Couldn't keep hands off each other
No we're lying back to back
And silence in the black
We used to laugh until we cried
You would look at me and smile
Now we hardly say hello
And feelings never show
All the signs seem to say love is lost
I don't wanna give up what we got because...

Maybe you could stay a bit longer
Or I could try a bit harder
We could make it work
But maybe we should stop pretending
We both know we're hurting
Maybe it's time to go

We broke up last Sunday night
Keep on thinking 'bout the fight
Rest my head against the wall
Your bags are by the door
Then your key turns in the lock

You see me on the stairs and stop
Have you had a change of heart?
Can we go back to the start?
But all the signs seem to say love is lost
I don't wanna give up yet because...


Maybe you could stay a bit longer
I could try a bit harder
We could make this work
But maybe we should stop pretending
We both know we're hurting

Maybe it's time to go
Maybe its time to go (go)
Maybe its time to go (go)
Maybe its time to go
But I just don't know

Maybe you could stay a bit longer
Or I could try a bit harder
We could make it work
But maybe we should stop pretending
We both know we're hurting
Maybe it's time to go


8.Suitcase

Didn't see it coming
No kind of warning
I can't work out what I've done wrong
His clothes are missing
But his keys are still here
Please somebody tell me whats going on


My baby's got a suitcase
He's telling me its too late
But don't nobody, please don't ask me why
'Cause all I did was love him
But I can't stop him walking
My baby's got a suitcase but please don't ask me why


What changed so quickly?
Answer me!
If you must kill me then please,please tell me why
He said 'Don't touch me, Get out the way'

Will someone tell me what's going on tonight

My baby's got a suitcase
He's telling me its too late
But don't nobody, please don't ask me why
'Cause all I did was love him
But I can't stop him walking
My baby's got a suitcase but please don't ask me why


I cant stop my heart leaving through the door
I cant unpack my heart 'cause he won't look at me anymore


My baby's got a suitcase
He's telling me its too late
But don't nobody, please don't ask me why
'Cause all I did was love him
But I can't stop him walking
My baby's got a suitcase but please don't ask me why


9.Breaking The Law

When you need to smile
But you can't afford it
Go on point it out
I'm gonna steal it
When the floor is more familiar than the ceiling
I will break in late at night
Shake up how you're feeling


I'll never stop
Breaking the law for you
I'll never stop
Helping to pull you through
Whatever it takes ti get what you need
Ignore the alarm
Ignore the police
I'll never stop
Breaking the law for you

When you're taking steps
But need to go faster
We can speed through streets
So the shadows can't catch ya
When the corridors and all the stairs are making you tired
I will come for you
Set the building on fire


I'll never stop
Breaking the law for you
I'll never stop
Helping to pull you through
Whatever it takes ti get what you need
Ignore the alarm
Ignore the police
I'll never stop
Breaking the law for you

11.River

If you're looking for the big adventure
and gold is all that's on your mind

12.Lifetime

Dreaming only lasts until you wake up and you find
you're not asleep
Silence only sticks around 'til someone in the room
decides to speak

And luck runs out and hearts go cold
We're only young until we're old
And summer leaves us wondering where it went
The friends you have can disappear
The whole world can change within a year
And money only lasts until it's spent

But you, you, you last a lifetime (you last a lifetime)
You last a lifetime

Truth will change and time will fly
The party lasts until the wine's gone
The time next week the radio
Will change it's mind and play a different song

We stay in touch 'til we forget
And beauty fades, the kiss will end
And fame will love and leave you just as fast
You'll have it all until it's gone
The books gets burnt, the statues fall
Sometimes feels like nothing will ever last

But you, you, you last a lifetime
You last a lifetime

Hey, love, we'll dance together
Since I found you feels like time don't matter
Hey, love, I feel much better
You show me forever

You, you, you last a lifetime
You last a lifetime


13.Hope

I hope that the world stops raining
Stops turning it's back on the young
See nobody here is blameless
I hope that we can fix all that we've done
I really hope Martin can see this
I hope that we still have a dream
I'm hoping that change isn't hopless
I'm hoping to start it with me
I just hope I'm not the only one
I just hope I'm not the only one
I hope we start seeing forever
Instead of what we can gain in a day
I hope we start seeing each other
Cause don't we all bleed the same
I really hope someone can hear me
That a child doesn't bear the weight of a gun
I find the voice within me

To scream at the top of my lungs
I just hope I'm not the only one
I just hope I'm not the only one
Louder, I cannot hear you
How can things be better left unsaid
Call me, call me a dreamer
But it seems like dreams are all that we've got left
I hope we still have a heartbeat
I hope we don't turn to snow
A night when you turn the lights off
I hope you don't cry alone
I hope we stop taking for granted
All of the land and all of the sea
I'm taking a chance on loving
I hope that you take it with me
I just hope I'm not the only one
I just hope I'm not the only one
I just hope I'm not the only one

17.Easier In Bed

I'm feeling like a hole in your head
Like the last thing in the world that you need
Time to go but we hold on instead
Close our eyes and we make believe

It's hard, hard to fake it baby
Hard to endure it baby
This don't feel like love anymore
Hard, hard to take it baby
Hard, hard to face it baby
It's getting harder to ignore

But it's easier in bed
Easier in bed
At night-time we pretend
Cos it's easier in bed

You're feeling like we're failing the test
Our fading dream is breaking your heart
You know the physical is all we've got left
Coz the only time you see me is in the dark

And it's hard, hard to fake it baby
Hard to endure it baby
This don't feel like love anymore
Hard, hard to take it baby
Hard, hard to face it baby
It's getting harder to ignore

But it's easier in bed
Easier in bed
At night-time we pretend
Cos it's easier in bed

It's easier in bed
Easier in bed
At night-time we pretend
Cos it's easier in bed

Easier in bed
At night-time we pretend.


18.Beneath Your Beautiful(Labrinth feat. Emeli Sande)

You tell all the boys no
Makes you feel good yeah
I know you're out of my league
But that won't scare me way out no
You've carried on so long
You couldn't stop if you tried it
You've built your wall so high
That no one could climb it
But i'm gonna try

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now girl, take it off now girl
I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight

You let all the girls go
Makes you feel good, don't it?
Behind your Broadway show
I heard a voice say please don't hurt me
You've carried on so long
You couldn't stop if you tried it
You've built your wall so high
That no one could climb it
But i'm gonna try

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now boy, take it off now boy
I wanna see inside
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
Ohhh, Tonight

See beneath, See beneath,
I...Tonight
I...

I'm gonna climb on top of your ivory tower
I'll hold your hand and you'll, you'll jump right out
We'll be falling, falling
But that's okay
Cause I'll be right here
I just wanna love

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now girl, take it off now girl
Cause I wanna see you say
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight
Tonight, see beneath your beautiful
Oh tonight, we ain't perfect, we ain't perfect
Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight


19.Imagine

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one
