Adele - I Found A Boy Lyrics

I thought I told you,
he'd be home soon.
Couldn't help myself,
you're too good to be true.

I fall short each time,
every time he ain't here.
You and your charm creep closer,
closer and near.

Like a fool for fire I fall,
with my pride and all.
Like a bomb before explosion,
ticking by your call.

You're the wiser one,
disguised from greed,
and I'm just a child,
belongs on her knees.

But I found a boy who I love more,
than I ever did, you before.
So stand beside the river I cried,
and let yourself down.
Look how you want me now that I don't need you

So, you thought that I'd
crumble to my knees.
At the first sight of you
crawling back to me.

To whisper "Will you leave your man?"
Cause you swear that this time you can,
Stand by me.
I won't stand by you.

Cause I found a boy who I love more,
than I ever did you, before.
So stand beside the river I cried
and let yourself down.
Look how you want me now, that I don't need you.

I ain't yours for no taking,
you must be mistaken.
I could never look into your eyes,
and settle for wrong and ignore the right.

Well, I found a boy that loves me more,
than you ever did before.
So stand beside the river you'll cry
and let yourself down.
Look how you want me now that I don't need you.
