Ellie Goulding
Tainted Memories
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Don't take me back to arguments on the 'tube
Always apologize for something I didn't do
[Pre-Chorus]
(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
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
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
