Letra Something in the way Jorja Smith

Something in the way

When I left I thought I would be stronger
But in fact, it took away my energy
Hard to tell you that I could not really see
Beyond the gates of this purgatory
I am so tainted now, I cannot wash you off
The memories still don't seem to fade
When I left, did you even wash your tears?
'Cause mine have been dryin' for days

Something in the way
Why am I crying for you, babe?
Can't stand the rain
Time to move on anyway

Don't ask me why
It's done
So long, goodbye
I'm gone

'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
If I kept a hold a little longer
I would never think I'd ever get away
Don't want to say I tried to keep ya
Say love is blind, I couldn't see you change, no
Don't wanna find myself back in that place
I have wasted all my tears on fools
There was no help for me, no saving grace
I had been tryin' for days

There was something in the way
Why am I crying for you, babe?
No I can't stand the rain
Time to move on anyway

Don't ask me why
It's done
So long, goodbye
I'm gone

'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back

Well there was something in the way
Why am I crying for you, babe?
I can't stand the rain
Time to move on anyway

'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
Even the sun in the summer doesn't seem to last
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
