Embers – English Lyrics

• By: James Arthur

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

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

I'm still not healing

'Cause you're the one 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

...

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

...

I'm reminded of you all Septembers

When we fell like the autumn leaves, oh aye

...

You're the fire that died, I'm the embers, oh aye

You're the other half of me, oh aye

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

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 have found a way to meet in the middle

And it's tragic that even now (even now, babe) I can't let go

...

And I can't let go

...

And I want you to know, oh aye

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 have 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)

...

All that I wanted

Wasn't all that you needed

...
