Rachel Platten

I'd go beyond our fighting borders If you needed that from me I'd march with decorated soldiers To get your pretty eyes to see Well, I would bring your morning coffee Then I'd wrap you up in me I'd kiss your belly and your shoulders Cover blankets on o...

I am 53 steps from my apartment I have memorized the cracks that age the road I couldn't quite grasp what my heart meant But I think that it was telling me to go Now I'm going up, down spinning round Trying to communicate But these words aren't quite what I'm...

[Verse 1] Each time you leave I can't know when you will slip in and lean against my door And I will try to hide my eyes, seal my voice, try to deny, how long I have waited here for you [Pre-Chorus] Now I'm broken, hoping that you'll glue me up again [Cho...

[Verse 1] Last night I saw a suit give a buck to a bum Twenty feet down the street, someone yelling: "look up!" Some girl, maybe eighteen, probably drunk Just in time, out the way of a bus [Pre-Chorus] And maybe things are finally getting better, better...

[Verse 1] Let's meet up far away Where astronauts and gravity Have opened up the atmosphere We'll be so safe up here Navigating the space, we'll create our own star And I'll name it after you We'll be so calm up there, we'll fly around with the quiet ai...

We threw words like they were sharp knives Fell like we tripped over a landmine You said we lost love You made your mind up And I just got quiet, my body went numb And I pretend that I can handle it and if I hold my head up, I won't drown Can't let go,...

I'll tell the world (I'll sing a song) It's a better place since you came along (Since you came along) Your touch is sunlight through the trees Your kisses are the ocean breeze Everything's alright when you're with me And I hold my favorite thing I hold the l...

[Zwrotka 1] Give it a listen, love If you're quiet for long enough All the echoes & noise and stuff Might combust And give it a listen, love Your little head has worked hard enough And your heavy eyes might adjust If you trust So close your eyes...

I'm on a highway full of red lights I lost so many long nights Felt words that cut like knives I know I know they're gonna Say what they wanna I know they're gonna Say what they want (want want) But I feel it changing I can taste it, I'm on the wave a...

[Verse 1] Lately, I feel like I'm pushing you away Acting moody for no reason And even though you know I'm always gonna stay I've been talking like I'm leaving [Pre-Chorus 1] I don't know why I keep playing these dumb games Love is not a competition A...

I'm stupid and confused My ego's raw and bruised Your words were weapons and They tore me down again We play our conversation You threw your accusations I'm always so complaisant I never change the station Help me find a sharper knife I need to cut y...

Poets and painters and daytime escapers tell us a story of what we once knew paint us a picture of some great excuse because we lost the truth, when we lost the music We are everything we own right? And the second that we don't fight Is the moment that we ow...

Shut up; you don't have to say anything. It was my fault, my fault all along. I dig in my heels and I can't let it go. I just feel like this city's not my home. My heart is a cage. And my bones feel so strange. Do I have to break down to break through? Get l...

[Verse 1] Used to be, used to be love Used to be you and me, love Now, there's no love Used to feel, used to feel good Used to feel right where I should Now, it's no good Ooh, thought you were the one Ooh, now look what you've done [Pre-Chorus] I d...

Like a small boat On the ocean Sending big waves Into motion Like how a single word Can make a heart open I might only have one match but I can make an explosion And all those things I didn't say Wrecking balls inside my brain I will scream them lou...

[Intro] Do I, do I, do I Do I, do I, do I Do I, do I, do I Do I, do I, do I [Verse 1] You, you know that I've done bad things In my didn't-know-a-thing phase I'm not sure sometimes that I've changed And you know all that, still you stay I don't know...

[Verse 1] I'm stumbling over my laces Kaleidoscope of everyone's faces All my friends are saying, "Come on, Rachel, you should sit" But God, this music feels so good, I do the opposite [Verse 2] How 'bout we stay and never go home And be in the present...

[Verse 1] Is this what I've become? Someone who gets jealous of someone? Instead of open arms and honest praise I'm closing doors and pushing love away When did I come undone? When did the colors of my canvas start to run? I can't control the teardrops...

How'd it happen? I know it started with a strong attraction One disappointment caused a chain reaction And I'm so tired of asking are we okay, okay? I, I can't keep trying, don't compromise it 'Cause the stars are lining up for once in my life And you're on t...

[Verse 1] I'm not stressing, not doing what I usually do Normally I can show situations, but I don't with you Have a history of unraveling, love, like a ball of yarn All the labels and great expectations, all they do is harm [Pre-Chorus] I close my eyes...

Maybe I'm selfish call me see-through But I'm debating if I really need to Be tied, tied to someone forever Sure I get lonely sometimes and miss being together but hey! I wanna roam from city to city Let the highway and the crowd fill the hunger that's in...

Strangers passing on the subway Ghost's inhabiting the same cold hallway Dragging round the broken hearts Searching each other for the missing parts Yeah does it always feel so lonely here for everybody Doesn't anybody find somebody in this story Strang...

She dreams of where she's never been Her story starts where it should end And she keeps a bible close And folds the pages down she needs the most The faded walls are closing in So in her head she leaves again And they've painted ceilings blue and green...

We make patterns out of stars and we whisper little prayers To be somewhere that we're not and if we're good it will take us there But then the light comes through the dark and our questions fall apart It's just the beating of our hearts and the still of the...

(Verse One) Everybody's trying to mend a broken heart. Buy a little bit of love and try to start. Sew your secrets up with cotton and string. Teach yourself little recipes and things to say. (Chorus) I'm not like that, It's not like that. I don't hurt...

Gold green eyes You, you see me in the perfect light And, and even for the thousandth time Yeah, your hands can make my skin light up like diamonds Baby, it's chemical, something about you really drives me crazy Baby, it's magical, it could be the stars above...

Cuando creas que te mueres Ven, que en mi abrazo está tu hogar Pues hoy, ya ni te hace falta hablar Porque si tu fe se rompe sabes que yo cuidaré de ti Yo siempre estaré ahí Oh si, tanto tiempo lloraste un mar A mí lo que te duele me dolerá Porque si...

[Verse 1] If I could break away half of all your pain I'd take the worst of it and carry you like you carry me You say that you're alright when tears are in your eyes We're strong enough for this and I need you It's okay that you need me So put your arm...

[Verse 1] There's so much I don't know about you and I'm dying to Tackle the recent obstacle that's keeping me from you We were at the beach and you were hiding on your phone You said nothing's wrong, but something's wrong [Verse 2] You know my insecuri...

[Verse 1] I'm a fierce, badass, glorious woman I am learning to own my power Is that scary? Oh, I'm sorry I'll get small again soon [Pre-Chorus] Surely, my ego will find out I've let go And that I've run But for now, yeah, for now [Chorus] I am wil...
