Tom Chaplin
Staring at the Ceiling
[Verse 1]
Things will seem much better in the morning light
Love will be much easier to own
Things will look much better in the pale sunlight
We can be together like before
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You just need time to forget
You just need time to explain
You just need time to forget yourself again
[Chorus]
You're lying on the floor and
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking of the place you
Have never seen before
[Verse 2]
Remember when you held
Someone for the first time
Remember when this fire was all we had
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now you want life without death
And you want love without pain
Now you want time to go back and start again
[Chorus]
You're lying on the floor and
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking of the place you
Have never seen before
Thinking of your old friends
And waiting for the feeling
Waiting for the old burning feeling to return
[Bridge]
These days you don't know who you are
These days you don't know where you are
These days we don't know who we are
So meet me by the wall
Where we used to go
[Chorus]
You're lying on the floor and
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking of the place you
Have never seen before, seen before
Waiting for the phonecall
And waiting for the feeling
Waiting for the old raging feeling to return, to return
