Ellie Goulding - Tainted Memories lyrics

[Ellie Goulding - Tainted Memories lyrics]

Left me cold on a Saturday afternoon
Carrying your guitar, you said it was overdue
Impossible, how could it be the truth?
It was only yesterday
The future was only you

I remember the times when
I couldn't get higher
Caught in the thrill when I
Knew you were lying
Guess I was willing to lie
To myself on a make-believe

Now I got tainted memories
Drowning in tears of you and me
Could dance to same old melodies
When you're here in my head
After years in my bed
Now it's just tainted memories
'Cause nothing is ever what it seems
When everything turns to jealousy
When you're here in my head
After years in my bed
Don't want the memories

Don't take me back to arguments on the 'tube
Always apologize for something I didn't do

(Ah, ah) i remember the times when you
Said you were tired dressed to the nines
Never sure if you liked it
Guess I was willing to lie
To myself on a make-believe

Now I got tainted memories
Drowning in tears of you and me
Could dance to same old melodies
When you're here in my head
After years in my bed
Now it's just tainted memories
'Cause nothing is ever what it seems
When everything turns to jealousy
When you're here in my head
After years in my bed
Don't want the memories

Don't want the memories
(When you're here in my head, head, head)
Don't want the memories
(When you're here in my head, head, head)
Don't want the memories
