[Verse 1]
Nothing left to say and nothing left to do
You made up your mind, and mine's been made up too
Maybe I deserve this, maybe you were right
You made your bed now sleep in it, and I’ll kiss you goodnight
[Chorus]
Our love was fit for a King
But you weren’t ready for royalty
You left me with nothing
Never was your priority
You tell me you’ll change
But you’re still stuck in your ways
I don’t think that we can go back to when
Our love was fit for a King
[Verse 2]
Sat upon a throne, I offered you a seat
You’d rather sit alone, now I'm sat at your feet
Everything was perfect, but you left it behind
Really hope that it was worth it, 'cause I can't change your mind
[Chorus]
Our love was fit for a King
But you weren’t ready for royalty
You left me with nothing
Never was your priority
You tell me you’ll change
But you’re still stuck in your ways
I don’t think that we can go back to when
Our love was fit for a King
[Chorus]
Our love was fit for a King
But you weren’t ready for royalty
You left me with nothing
Never was your priority
You tell me you’ll change
But you’re still stuck in your ways
I don’t think that we can go back to when
Our love was fit for a King

[Verse 1]
He takes me out somewhere nice
And he wears that shirt that he knows I like
My baby is always on time
'cause he knows how to get it right
He can place my order 'cause he knows just what I wanted
It feels like he's reading my mind
Any time of day I can call him just to say
That I wanna have him by my side
[Pre-Chorus]
You know I can't get enough of your love
You know I can't get enough of your love
You know I can't get enough of your love
I don't want anybody else but you
Just us at a table for two
[Chorus]
I don't want anybody else but you
Just us, a table for two
I don't want anybody else it's true
Just us at a table for two
I don't want anybody else but you
Just us, a table for two
I don't want anybody else it's true
Just us at a table for two
[Verse 2]
He loves me in subtle ways
And there's not one thing that I would change
My baby never, ever complains
And he learns from his mistakes
I don't see him all the time
But it doesn't matter 'cause he's always on my mind
He tells me how he feels and doesn't lie
Everything is in black and white
[Pre-Chorus]
You know I can't get enough of your love
You know I can't get enough of your love
[Chorus]
I don't want anybody else but you
Just us, a table for two
I don't want anybody else it's true
Just us at a table for two
I don't want anybody else but you
Just us, a table for two
I don't want anybody else it's true
Just us at a table for two

[Verse 1]
You seem so awfully quiet
So why am I enjoying the silence?
Did you eat your words for breakfast?
Are you hungry for me to forget this?
Somehow it’s not easy sailing
In fact there’s a little bit of waiting
Did you eat your words for breakfast?
Did you eat your words for breakfast?
[Chorus]
Why are you dressed in that coat of anger?
When baby it’s not your colour
Oh baby, it’s just not your colour
And maybe you’ll find a girl that
Doesn’t care if you're honest
And will love you for the money in your wallet
Am I just another coin in the bottom of your pocket?
In the bottom of your pocket
[Verse 2]
You seem so suddenly nervous
Like someone owes you the world
And it looks like they can’t afford it
‘Cause they’re wealthy in what’s important
And somehow you feel like a magnet
I try to pull away but can’t resist
Am I just another coin lingering?
Is that why I’m so cosy in the depths of your pocket?
[Chorus]
Why are you dressed in that coat of anger?
When baby it’s not your colour
Oh baby, it’s just not your colour
And maybe you’ll find a girl that
Doesn’t care if you're honest
And will love you for the money in your wallet
Am I just another coin in the bottom of your pocket?
In the bottom of your pocket, yeah
[Bridge]
A copper boy left you out in the city
I bet he told you he was made gold but really
He weighed you down ’til you’re heavy, nothing out the ordinary
[Chorus]
Why are you dressed in that coat of anger?
When baby it’s not your colour
Oh baby, it’s just not your colour
And maybe you’ll find a girl that
Doesn’t care if you're honest
And will love you for the money in your wallet
Am I just another coin in the bottom of your pocket?
In the bottom of your pocket, yeah, mmm

Pirouettes

[Verse 1]
All alone, crying to myself again
The neighbours must be wondering what's going on
Going on again
I used to think that I was ok with the situation
But since you’ve gone I just keep replaying
Everything that you were saying
(Again, again, again)
[Pre-Chorus]
They tell me to put on my make up, and get out of bed
But I don’t wanna do that, I just wanna lay here
They tell me we’ve all been through break ups, and it just takes time
But I don’t wanna hear that, I just wanna feel fine
[Chorus]
(Pirouettes)
Now my head is spinning, and I can’t get it to stop
Now I’m feeling dizzy ‘cause my mind is doing pirouettes non stop
Now I’m feeling stupid when I toss and turn at night
So I sleep in the middle of the bed so I can sleep on both our sides
[Verse 2]
6am, I don’t wanna go to work
The same routine like clockwork
It’s been going on for far too long again
And I'm so tired of making the same old conversation
With different faces and generations
Who can’t relate to what I’m saying
(So they say)
[Pre-Chorus]
They tell me to look on the bright side, so I look to the light
But they don’t understand the light made love go blind
Then they tell me that I should be cautious of my appetite
But I can’t help feeling nauseous when I think of the good times
[Chorus]
(Pirouettes)
Now my head is spinning, and I can’t get it to stop
Now I’m feeling dizzy 'cause my mind is doing pirouettes non stop
Now I’m feeling stupid when I toss and turn at night
So I sleep in the middle of the bed so I can sleep on both our sides
[Outro]
Now my head, my head is spinning round again, and round again
I can't get it to stop, it keeps spinning round and round and round again

[Verse 1]
Oh, take me to the start
When I didn’t know where we going
Or what I was in for
Oh, you were my counterpart
And I would come running when you were calling
But it’s not like that anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
The grass is greener on the other side
But I’m stuck in the middle
And I can’t sit back and enjoy the ride
When I don’t know where we’re headed
The grass is greener on the other side
But I’m stuck in the middle
And I can’t sit back and enjoy the ride
When I don’t know where we’re headed
[Chorus]
You can send my roots rain
Now we can grow and start again
Now we can grow and start again
So we wait 'til the house burns in flames
Now we can build us back up again
Brick by brick
[Verse 2]
Oh, we were like motorways
But every bend became a dead end
It was always bad days
Now I’m gonna cause a flood
And pray that it works
And washes the sadness out of what we were
[Pre-Chorus]
The grass is greener on the other side
But I’m stuck in the middle
And I can’t sit back and enjoy the ride
When I don’t know where we’re headed
The grass is greener on the other side
But I’m stuck in the middle
And I can’t sit back and enjoy the ride
When I don’t know where we’re headed
[Chorus]
You can send my roots rain
Now we can grow and start again
Now we can grow and start again
So we wait 'til the house burns in flames
Now we can build us back up again
Brick by brick
[Bridge]
Brick by brick, brick by brick, oh
Brick by brick, brick by brick, oh
Brick by brick, brick by brick, oh
Brick by brick, brick by brick, oh oh
[Chorus]
You can send my roots rain
So we wait 'til the house burns in flames
Brick by brick
You can send my roots rain
Now we can grow and start again
Now we can grow and start again
So we wait 'til the house burns in flames
Now we can build us back up again
Brick by brick

[Verse 1]
It’s typical you
To blame the circumstance and not the problems, mm
Hypocritical you
Would not give it a chance and try to solve them, mmm
We thought our differences would be insignificant
But you’re not seeing things the way I do
I can’t put my finger on it, why we can’t get along
We’ll never have the same point of view
[Chorus]
But that’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
Someone who brings out the better half of me
We both know that you and I weren’t meant to be
That’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
[Verse 2]
It wouldn’t be right now
To say the way things turned out was surprising, mmm
'Cause it’s black and white now
Looking back I spent the whole time compromising, mmm
We thought our differences would be insignificant
But you will never see things like I do
I‘ve put my finger on it, why we can’t get along
We’re far too different people, me and you
[Chorus]
But that’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
Someone who brings out the better half of me
We both know that you and I weren’t meant to be
That’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
Yeah, I’ll be fine ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
Someone who brings out the better half of me
We both know that you and I weren’t meant to be
That’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
[Bridge]
Ooooh (typical you)
It’s not how it used to be
I’ve found some better company
Ooooh (hypocritical you)
We’d always disagree on everything
[Chorus]
But that’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
Someone who brings out the better half of me
We both know that you and I weren’t meant to be
That’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
Yeah, I’ll be fine ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry
Someone who brings out the better half of me
We both know that you and I weren’t meant to be
That’s alright ‘cause now I’ve found my symmetry

Nothing left to say and nothing left to do
You made up your mind, and mine's been made up too
Maybe I deserve this, maybe you were right
You made your bed now sleep in it, and I’ll kiss you goodnight
[Chorus]
Our love was fit for a King but you weren’t ready for royalty
You left me with nothing, never was your priority
You tell me you’ll change but you’re still stuck in your ways
I don’t think that we can go back to when our love was fit for a King
[Verse 2]
Sat upon a throne, I offered you a seat
You’d rather sit alone, now I'm sat at your feet
Everything was perfect, but you left it behind
I really hope that it was worth it, 'cause I can't change your mind
[Chorus]
Our love was fit for a King but you weren’t ready for royalty
You left me with nothing, never was your priority
You tell me you’ll change but you’re still stuck in your ways
I don’t think that we can go back to when our love was fit for a King

Our love was fit for a King, you weren’t ready for royalty
Left me with nothing, never was your priority
You tell me you’ll change but you’re still stuck in your ways
I don’t think that we can go back to when our love was fit for a King
