Rolling In The Deep – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
Finally I see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out, I'll lay your ship 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
Rollin' in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it to the beat
...
Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you and I'm gonna make your head burn
See me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there, 'cause reminds you of the home we shared
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
Rollin' in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it to the beat
We could have had it all
Rollin' in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it with the beat
...
Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
Pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow
...
You gonna wish you
Never had met me
Tears are gonna fall
Rollin' in the deep
You gonna wish you
You could have had it all
You could have had it all
Rollin' in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played, you played, you played, you played to the beat
...
