  • You say it's all in my head
    And the things I think just don't make sense
    So where you been then? Don't go all coy
    Don't turn it round on me like it's my fault
    See I can see that look in your eyes
    The one that shoots me each and every time

    You grace me with your cold shoulder
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
    You shower me with words made of knives
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

    These days when I see you
    You make it look like I'm see-through
    Do tell me why you waste our time
    When your heart ain't in it, and you're not satisfied
    You know I know just how you feel
    I'm starting to find myself feeling that way too

    When you grace me with your cold shoulder
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
    You shower me with words made of knives
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

    Time and time again, I play the role of fool
    (Just for you)
    Even in the daylight when you think that
    (I don't see you)
    Try to look for things I hear but our eyes never find
    Though I do know how you play

    You grace me with your cold shoulder
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
    You shower me with words made of knives
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

    You grace me with your cold shoulder
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
    You shower me with words made of knives
    Whenever you look at me I wish I was her Writer/s: Adele Laurie Blue Adkins, Sacha Skarbek
