We Used to Shine Songtext
von James Bay

Honesty
Really is the hardest thing
And all the twisted truth you bring
Won′t let me in
Tell me how it ends
I long to be
Bold enough for bravery
'Cause this mess you made of me
Has gravity enough to hide the lie you kept so long
Of how you did me wrong

But I don′t want this fight
Put your hands in mine
Hold me close and move with me
Remember how we used to shine
I don't want this fight
Set the words alight
Just hold me close and move with me
With every beat
Remember how we used to shine


Look for me
I'm not somewhere out of reach
We′re not two ships lost at sea
There′s got to be more to this than rivalry, I know
'Cause we′re not made of stone

And I don't want this fight
Put your hands in mine
Hold me close and move with me
Remember how we used to shine
I don′t want this fight
Set the words alight
Just hold me close and move with me
With every beat
Remember how we used to shine

Remember when you stayed 'round
Remember when you showed me how
To dance all night, to cry out loud
Remember when our love was new
Remember what I said to you
"You′re all I want"
Well, that's still true


And I don't want this fight
Put your hands in mine
Hold me close and move with me
Remember how we used to shine
I don′t want this fight
Set the words alight
Just hold me close and move with me
With every beat
Remember how we used to shine

Remember when you stayed ′round
Remember when you showed me how
To dance all night, to cry out loud

I don't want this fight
Remember when our love was new
Remember what I said to you
"You′re all I want"
Well, that's still true
I don′t want this fight
