Songtext Embers James Arthur

Embers

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 have 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 in Septembers
When we fell like the autumn leaves, oh aye
You're the fire that died, I'm the embers
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
