Gabrielle Aplin - Reverse lyrics
Your rating:
I sat and watched this city crumble Just as it was being built The bigger it gets, the less it's thought of But I'm just scared of losing all that we have left And the colours of these roads are matching the rainy sky We're too blind to see what's really here in front of our eyes I hope some day, this will reverse And send us back to the times before Before we grew up and lost the novelty of clear blue skies and climbing trees Can't you see what our lives have come to be? Can't you see what our lives have come to be? We used to just make friends so easily Now they're judging anyone as how it's meant to be Our parents were always heros in our eyes But T.V. and magazines soon changed our minds The colours of these roads are matching the rainy sky We're too blind to see what's really here in front of our eyes I hope some day, this will reverse And send us back to the times before Before we grew up and lost the novelty of clear blue skies and climbing trees Can't you see what our lives have come to be? Can't you see what our lives have come to be? I watched the ones I loved turn into rust Wearing almost nothing, they go out after dusk As if to be accepted, you need to sell your soul They need to learn there's much more to this world And the colours of these roads are matching the rainy sky We're too blind to see what's really here in front of our eyes And I hope some day, this will all reverse And send us back to the times before Before we grew up and lost the novelty of clear blue skies and climbing trees Can't you see what our lives have come to be? Can't you see what our lives have come to be?
