i know you care

Singer:ellie goulding

clinging to me

like a last breath you would breathe

you were like home to me

i don't recognize the street

please don't close your eyes

don't know where to look without them

outside the cars speed by

i'd never heard them until now

i know you care

i know it is always been there

but there's trouble ahead

i can feel it

you are just saving yourself when you hide it

yeah

i know you care

i see it in the way you stare

as if there was trouble ahead and you knew it

i'll be saving myself from the ruin

and i know you care

i used to run down the stairs

to the door when i thought you were there

do you shape through the comfort of us

two lovers locked out of love

oh

but i know you care

i know it has always been there

but there's trouble ahead

i can feel it

you are just saving yourself when you hide it

yeah

i know you care

i see it in the way that you stare

as if there was trouble ahead and you knew it

i'll be saving myself from the ruin

i know it wasn't always wrong

but i've never known a winter so cold

now i don't warm my hands in your coat

but i still hope

'cause this is how things ought to have been

and i know the worst of it wasn't all that it seemed

why can't i dream

why can't i dream

'cause i know you care

and i know you care

i know you care

i know you care

i know it's always been there
