Adele I Found a Boy song lyrics

I thought I told you, he'd be home soon

Couldn't help myself, you're too good to be true.

I fall short each time,

Every time he ain't here

You and your charm creep closer

Closer and near

Like a fool for fire, I fall, with my pride and all.

Like a bomb before explosion,

Ticking by your call,

You're the wiser one, disguised from greed,

And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees.

But I found a boy who I love more,

Than I ever did you before,

So stand beside the river I cried,

And lay yourself down.

Look how you want me now that I don't need you.

So, you thought that I'd crumble to my knees

At the first sight of you crawling back to me

To whisper "will you leave your man? "

Cause you swear that this time you can stand by me.

I won't stand by you.

Cause I found a boy who I love more,

Than I ever did you before,

So stand beside the river I cried

And lay yourself down.

Look how you want me now that I don't need you!

I ain't yours for no taking,

You must be mistaken

I could never look into your eyes, and settle for wrong

And ignore the right

When I found a boy who loves me more,

Than you ever did me before.

So stand beside the river you cried

And lay yourself down!

Look how you want me now that I don't need you!
