[Verse 1]
I'm back in London, I'm running down Columbia Road
They're selling sunflowers cheap
I'm reading novels, I'm dating, but just dating for sport
I'm getting coffees for free
I hang all my art and I dance with the coven
As the rain falls hard on the street and I
I'm doing better, I made it to September
I can finally breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought I gave you the best of me, but
[Chorus]
The love we had was covered in snow
I had to let it go
Yeah, the love we had was eatin' me whole
I had to send it home
Oh, there it was, heaven knows
There it was, now there it goes
[Verse 2]
I feel it changing, I'm young, but I am aging and I
Need you less than I did
I threw a party, he kissed me right in front of my friends
I felt so far from the cliffs
I sleep through the night and I go where I'm wanted
And I don't need your light to be lit, but, oh
The way I loved you, I will not be embarrassed of that
Just should've known when to quit
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm over the worst of it 'cause
[Chorus]
The love we had was covered in snow
I had to let it go
Yeah, the love we had was eatin' me whole
I had to send it home
Oh, there it was (There it was), heaven knows (Heaven knows)
There it was (There it was), now there it goes
[Post-Chorus]
There it goes
There it goes
There it goes
[Bridge]
A new home, a swan dive, a blank page, a rewrite
A black cat in the streetlights, an open door
The comedown of closure, the girls and I do yoga
I wake up and it's October, the loss is yours
Brick Lane in the brisk cold and red wine on his hip bone
The witchin' hours of Stockholm that you won't see
Sunflowers in the kitchen, a heartbreak in remission
The universe is shifting and it's all for me
All for me
[Chorus]
The love we had was covered in snow
Thank God I let it go
Yeah, the love we had was good in its bones
Now it lives in the past and the radio
Oh, there it was (There it was), heaven knows (Heaven knows)
There it was (There it was), now there it goes
