Ellie has claimed that she has a huge fascination with classical music and opera singers and wanted to try it out on the track.
She spoke about the song with Michael Parkinson on Parkinson Masterclass in 2013; about how the song is about somebody who pushes people away their whole life without real...
[Verse 1]
You trembled like you'd seen a ghost
And I gave in
I lacked the things you need the most
You said, "Where have you been?"
You wasted all that sweetness to run and hide
I wonder why
I remind you of the days you poured your heart into
But you never tried
[Pre-Chorus]
I've fallen from grace
Took a blow to my face
I've loved and I've lost
I've loved and I've lost
[Chorus]
Explosions
On the day you wake up needing somebody
And you've learned
It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same
It will never be the same
[Verse 2]
You left my soul bleeding in the dark
So you could be king, ah
The rules you set are still untold to me
And I've lost my faith in everything
[Pre-Chorus]
The nights you could cope
Your intentions were gold
But the mountains will shake
I need to know I can still make
[Chorus]
Explosions
On the day you wake up needing somebody
And you've learned
It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same
[Bridge]
And as the floods move in
And your body starts to sink
I was the last thing on your mind
I know you better than you think
'Cause it's simple, darling
I gave you a warning
Now everything you own
Is falling from the sky in pieces
So watch them fall with you
In slow motion
I pray that you'll find peace of mind
And I'll find you another time
I'll love you another time
[Chorus]
Explosions
On the day you wake up needing somebody
And you've learned
It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same
