English Rain

Gabrielle Aplin English Rain Lyrics
1.Panic Cord

You kept all the things I threw away
A leaf I picked a birthday card I made
Holding on to memories of you and me
We didn't last a year
We're just a box of souvenirs
Maybe I pulled the panic cord
Maybe you were happy, I was bored
Maybe I wanted you to change
Maybe I'm the one to blame
This meant more to you than it did to me
I was full of doubt and you believe
The more that you keep coming over
The more I know it's over, dear
We're just a box of souvenirs
Maybe I pulled the panic cord
Maybe you were happy, I was bored
Maybe I wanted you to change
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Maybe you were just too nice to me
Maybe it took me way to long to leave
Maybe once we felt the same
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
That's the way the story goes oh
Maybe I pulled the panic cord
Maybe you were happy, I was bored
Maybe I wanted you to change
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Maybe you were just too nice to me
Maybe it took me way to long to leave
Maybe once we felt the same
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Maybe I'm the one to blame


2.Keep on Walking

Something's happening you can't see
(On your way, go on your way)
We are rolling on stormy seas
(On your way, go on your way)
You don't like when I disagree
(On your way, go on your way)
The lies you're spinning, you're changing me
(On your way, go on your way)

All that glitters is not gold
From the bruises flowers grow

I feel so much better now you're not around
There's no one to kick me while I'm down
No one to burn my bridges anymore
So keep on walking
'Cause I'm not here to make you feel good
To dry up your tears and apologise for you
I feel so much better now you're not around
So keep on walking out

You've been whispering way too loud
(On your way, go on your way)
You don't say sorry, you're far too proud
(On your way, go on your way)

All that glitters is not gold
I stayed up to watch you go

I feel so much better now you're not around
There's no one to kick me while I'm down
No one to burn my bridges anymore
So keep on walking
Cos I'm not here to make you feel good
To dry off your tears and apologise for you
I feel so much better now you're not around
So keep on walking out

You know I'm happy now


3.Please Don't Say You Love Me

Summer comes, winter fades
Here we are just the same
Don't need pressure, don't need change
Let's not give the game away

There used to be an empty space
A photograph without a face
But with your presence and your grace
Everything falls into place

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like
that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Heavy words are hard to take
Under pressure precious things can break
How we feel is hard to fake
So let's not give the game away

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like
that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Fools rush in
And I've been the fool before
This time I'm gonna slow it down
'Cause I think this could be more
The thing I'm looking for

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like
that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like
that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back


4.How Do You Feel Today?

The sound of your laugh has a ring of weariness
The night has a thousand eyes and your smile of heaviness
I've always asked for nothing but you've found it hard to see
So I gathered all I had and laid it down before you feet
I gathered all I had

So how do you feel today?
How do you feel today?
'Cause tonight I'm closing all the doors
So stay outside or lay down with our flaws
How do you feel today?

We moved faster than fate but it came at a cost
Now you're tripping over backwards for the days of youth you
lost
I offered you my hands and I've given you my hope
So let me be your salvation, I refuse to be your rope

So how do you feel today?
How do you feel today?
'Cause tonight I'm closing all the doors
So stay outside or lay down with our flaws
How do you feel today?

I've seen the glory but it wasn't enough
Those songs and bells were just the laughter of guns
I knew your stories, I knew it was love
But those songs and bells were the laughter of guns

So how do you feel today?
How do you feel today?
'Cause tonight I'm closing all the doors
So stay outside or lay down with our flaws
How do you feel today?


5.Home

I'm a phoenix in the water
A fish that's learnt to fly
And I've always been a daughter
But feathers are meant for the sky
So I'm wishing, wishing further
For the excitement to arrive
It's just I'd rather be causing the chaos
Than laying at the sharp end of this knife

With every small disaster
I'll let the waters still
Take me away to some place real
'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
Is where you go when you're alone
Is where you go to rest your bones
It's not just where you lay your head
It's not just where you make your bed
As long as we're together, does it matter where we go?
Home

So when I'm ready to be bolder,
And my cuts have healed with time
Comfort will rest on my shoulder
And I'll bury my future behind
I'll always keep you with me
You'll be always on my mind
But there's a shining in the shadows
I'll never know unless I try

With every small disaster
I'll let the waters still
Take me away to some place real
'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
Is where you go when you're alone
Is where you go to rest your bones
It's not just where you lay your head
It's not just where you make your bed
As long as we're together, does it matter where we go?
Home

'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
Is where you go when you're alone
Is where you go to rest your bones
It's not just where you lay your head
It's not just where you make your bed
As long as we're together, does it matter where we go?
Home


6.Salvation

You are the avalanche
One world away
My make believing
While I'm wide awake

Just a trick of light
To bring me back around again
Those wild eyes
A psychedelic silhouette

I never meant to fall for you but
I was buried underneath and all that I could see
Was white
My salvation, my my
My salvation, my my

You are the snowstorm
I'm purified
The darkest fairytale
In the dead of night

Let the band play out
As I'm making my way home again
Glorious we transcend
Into a psychedelic silhouette

I never meant to fall for you but I
Was buried underneath and all that I could see was white
My salvation, my my
My salvation, my my
My salvation, my my
My salvation, my my

My salvation, my my
My salvation, my my

My salvation, my my
My salvation, my my


7.Ready to Question

Is there something I'm not seeing?
Something you're not telling me?
'Cause I've been hearing different stories
I don't know what to believe

Is there a reason I'm not healing?
Or am I learning from this pain?
I have a little trouble kneeling
I don't know what to believe

I'm ready to question
That life is a blessing
Give me a sign, am I'll following blind?
Is there any one listening?
Is there anyone listening?
I don't know

See I've seen devils I've seen saints
I've seen the lines between them fade
I've seen pictures with no meaning
I don't know what to believe

But I'm ready to question
That life is a blessing
Give me a sign, am I following blind?
Is there any one listening?
Is there anyone listening?
I don't know

Does there have to be someone telling me?
This time wrong feels rights

I ready to question
That life is a blessing
Give me a sign am I following blind
Is there any one listening?
Is there anyone listening?
I ready to question
That life is a blessing
Give me a sign am I following blind?
Is there any one listening?
I don't know


8.The Power of Love

Dreams are like angels
They keep bad at bay
Love is the light
Scaring darkness away
I'm so in love with you
Make love your goal

The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
When the chips are down I'll be around
With my undying death defying love for you
Envy will hurt itself
Let yourself be beautiful
Sparkling like, flowers and pearls and pretty girls
Love is like an energy
Rushing in, rushing inside of me

The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

This time we go sublime
Lovers entwined divine divine
Love is danger, love is pleasure
Love is pure, the only treasure
I'm so in love with you
Make love your goal

The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
The power of love
A force from above
A sky scraping dove
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

Make love your goal


9.Alive

Just one step
A different day
Would I know you at all?
Would I know you at all?

When your kingdom falls
And you family fade
But it wasn't your fault
It was never your fault

And I realise
You have to feel alive
All your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now

Nine months on
And people fade
I wouldn't be here at all
I wouldn't be here at all

'Cause I fell in line
At a different place
And it wasn't my fault
No was never my fault
And I realise
You have to feel alive
Inside

And all your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now

And all your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now

And all your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now


10.Human

Show me that you're human, you won't break

Like a thief in the light, you can't hide, you can't hide from
your shadow
It's the only thing you own
And you don't need to pretend that perfection is your friend
'Cause we're all broken.

We all end up alone

Show me that you're human, you won't break
Oh love your flaws and live for your mistakes
Beauty's on the surface wearing thin
Come closer show the marks upon your skin
Show me that you're human

You're a spark without flame
I'm a desert in the rain,
You're a mountain and I'm a stepping stone
So walk away from your pride
It's a demon is disguise
And it won't help you to calm the swelling tide

Show me that you're human, you won't break
Oh love your flaws and live for your mistakes
And beauty's on the surface wearing thin
Come closer show the marks upon your skin
Show me that you're human

Show me that you're human, you won't break
Oh love your flaws and live for your mistakes
And beauty's on the surface wearing thin
Come closer show the marks upon your skin
Show me that you're human
Oh love your flaws and live for your mistakes
And beauty's on the surface wearing thin
Come closer show the marks upon your skin
Show me that you're human


11.November

I left you out in the English rain
To soak you through and dilute the blame
Don't ever want to hear those words today

You made me high then you swooped so low
From a hummingbird to a silent crow
I was on your side but then I saw it change

I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
Oh how can I forgive?
Those words will stain forever

I left you out in the English rain
To soak you through and dilute the blame
Don't ever want to hear those words today

You made me high then you swooped so low
From the hummingbird to a silent crow
I was on your side but then I saw it change

I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain

Oh how can I forgive?
Those words will stain forever

I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain

Oh how can I forgive?
Those words will stain forever


12.Start of Time

Oh today I'm just a drop of water
And I'm running down a mountainside
Come tomorrow I'll be in the ocean
I'll be rising with the morning tide

There's a ghost upon the moor tonight
Now it's in our house
When you walked into the room just then
It's like the sun came out

I'm an atom in a sea of nothing
Looking for another to combine
Maybe we could be the start of something
Be together at the start of time

There's a ghost upon the moor tonight
Now it's in our house
When you walked into the room just then
It's like the sun came out

It's like the sun came out
And the day is clear
My voice is just a whisper
Louder than the screams you hear

It's like the sun came out
