I called your number 'bout a hundred times

And I know, that you know that it's me

I sat and listened for hours and hours

When the world got you down on your knees

 

All that I wanna do is to hold you tight

Love you until you're back on your feet

But it's hard when I'm laying my heart in your hands

And you don't hand yours back to me

 

Just give me something

I don't need it all, but you're giving nothing

I'll take anything at all

Just give me something

'Cause all that I need is you

And you're giving nothing

Just give me something

 

I left you flowers outside your door

I see 'em die and it's killing me

Feel like a man on a walking wire

'Cause every change you get you're pushing me

You can break every bone, I'm still standing here

Waiting 'til you can finally see

You know all that we had it was magic

Now tragically, I'm begging you please

 

Just give me something

I don't need it all, but you're giving nothing

I'll take anything at all

Just give me something

'Cause all that I need is you

And you're giving nothing

Just give me something

Just give me something

Oh, just give me something

Oh, just give me something

 

I don't know how many nights

I can sit here waiting for you to come home

 

Just give me something

I don't need it all, but you're giving nothing

I'll take anything at all

Just give me something

'Cause all that I need is you

And you're giving nothing

 

Just give me something

I don't need it all, but you're giving nothing

I'll take anything at all

Just give me something

'Cause all that I need is you

And you're giving nothing

Just give me something

Just give me something

Oh, just give me something

Oh, just give me something.

A certain type of wind has swept me up

A chill has found each bone

I am overcome

There is an icy breath that escapes my lips

And I am lost again

 

A certain type of darkness has stolen me

Under a quiet mask of uncertainty

I wait for light like water from the sky

And I am lost again

 

In the sea of lovers without ships

And lovers without sight

You're the only way out of this

Sea of lovers losing time

And lovers losing hope

Will you let me follow you?

Wherever you go

Bring me home

 

A certain type of silence has filled my voice

I scream beneath the water and make no noise

All my prayers go quiet, they're never heard

And I am lost again

 

In the sea of lovers without ships

And lovers without sight

You're the only way out of this

Sea of lovers losing time

And lovers losing hope

Will you let me follow you?

Wherever you go

Bring me home

 

A certain type of wind has swept me up

A chill has found each bone

I am overcome

There is an icy breath that escapes my lips

And I am lost again

 

In the sea of lovers without ships

And lovers without sight

You're the only way out of this

Sea of lovers losing time

Lovers losing hope

You're the only way out of this

Sea of lovers without ships

Lovers without sight

You're the only way out of this

Sea of lovers losing time

Lovers losing hope

Will you let me follow you

Wherever you go

Bring me home.

I woke up, look in the mirror today, yeah

Got so many things that I wanna change, and

Everybody's got something to say

But that's just who we are

My new clothes don't fit anymore now

Me and the mirror still continue to fall out

I don't like this stranger staring at me, yeah

 

All my insecurities

Wishing for something different

All the things you do to me

Tell me the truth

 

Are we beautiful?

All of us?

'Cause we got something natural

It's a part of us

Darlin', when they put you down like that

Yeah, you can reply right back

You are beautiful (yeah)

I know, I know, you are

I know, I know, you are

I found myself looking again

Wondering why my body doesn't look like them

Know it might sound weird but I refuse to pretend

And then you probably think the same every now and again

I got more than all these scars

I got flaws and broken hearts

I don't like this stranger staring at me, yeah

All my insecurities

Searching for something different

All the things you do to me

Tell me the truth

Are we beautiful?

All of us?

'Cause we got something natural

It's a part of us

Darlin', when they put you down like that

Yeah, you can reply right back

You are beautiful (yeah)

I know, I know, you are

(I know, I know, I know)

I know, I know, you are

I know, I know, you are

We are beautiful

All of us

'Cause we got something natural

It's a part of us

Darlin', when they put you down like that

Yeah, you can reply right back

We are beautiful, yeah

I know, I know, we are

We are beautiful (yeah)

All of us

'Cause we got something natural (no?)

It's a part of us

Darlin', when they put you down like that

Yeah, you can reply right back

We are beautiful (yeah)

I know, I know, we are

We are

I know, I know, we are

We are beautiful

All of us

'Cause we got something natural

It's a part of us

After rising to prominence in October 2012 by featuring on Disclosure's breakthrough single "Latch", which peaked at number eleven on the UK Singles Chart, Smith was subsequently featured on Naughty Boy's "La La La", which became a number one single in May 2013. In December 2013, Smith was nominated for the 2014 Brit Critics' Choice Award and the BBC's Sound of 2014 poll, winning both.

       Smith's debut studio album, In the Lonely Hour, was released in May 2014 on Capitol Records UK. The album's lead single, "Lay Me Down", was released prior to "La La La". The album's second single, "Money on My Mind", became Smith's second number one single in the UK. The third single, "Stay with Me", was internationally successful, reaching number one in the UK and number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, while subsequent singles "I'm Not the Only One" and "Like I Can" reached the top ten in the UK. The album won four awards, at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards, including Best Pop Vocal Album, Best New Artist, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and nominations for Album of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance.

        For Smith's and Jimmy Napes's song "Writing's on the Wall", the theme for the James Bond film Spectre(2015), Smith won the Golden Globe Award and the Academy Award for Best Original Song. Smith's second studio album, The Thrill of It All, was released in November 2017 and debuted atop the UK and US album charts. The lead single, "Too Good at Goodbyes", reached number one in the UK and Australia and number four in the US. Following the 2018 single "Promises" with Calvin Harris, which peaked at number one in the UK, Smith released "Dancing with a Stranger" with Normani in 2019, which reached the top ten in the UK and the US and was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2020 Brit Awards, and followed it by releasing a string of commercially successful singles "How Do You Sleep?", "To Die For", and "I'm Ready" with Demi Lovato; all of which feature on Smith's third album, Love Goes.

Have it all

Rip our memories off the wall

All the special things I bought

They mean nothing to me anymore

But to you

They were everything we were

They meant more than every word

Now I know just what you love me for (mm)

 

Take all the money you want from me

Hope you become what you want to be

Show me how little you care

How little you care, how little you care

You dream of glitter and gold

My heart's already been sold

How little I care, how little I care

My diamonds leave with you

Shake it off

Shake the fear of feeling lost

Always me that pays the cost

I should never trust so easily

You lied to me, lie-lied to me

Then left with my heart 'round your chest

 

Take all the money you want from me

Hope you become what you want to be

Show me how little you care

How little you care, how little you care

You dream of glitter and gold

My heart's already been sold

Show you how little I care

How little I care, how little I care

 

My diamonds leave with you

You're never gonna hear my heart break

Never gonna move in dark ways
