Essie & Paul Letra - Bastille

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Our love is like a river, overflowing over time

Running wild, filled with life

Our love is complicated, living lies and compromise

Side by side, speaking our minds

We both made this bed

We can't fit the whole world into it

Tie our threads into a life that fits

If it's gonna make you happy

If it's gonna set us free

If it's gonna hold us steady

Then it's all we need

If it's gonna make you happy

If it's gonna let us be

If it's gonna hold us steady

Then it's what I need

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) It's what I want

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) 'Cause I want you, I need you

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Your voice brought us forever, but with work and fame and family

We use our minds to light some fires

Our choices bound together, saw the world, made history

We're living free, and honestly

So we share this bed rather than lying more in it

Pull the threads, but just don't set fire to this

If it's gonna make you happy

If it's gonna set us free

If it's gonna hold us steady

Then it's all we need

If it's gonna make you happy

If it's gonna let us be

If it's gonna hold us steady

Then it's what I need

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) It's what I want

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) 'Cause I want you, I need you

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Still their faces come to haunt me

The ghosts I have to share you with

Oh, still to me, they're never walking

In this garden that we've built, oh-oh-oh

If it's gonna make you happy

If it's gonna set us free

If it's gonna hold us steady

Then it's all we need

If it's gonna make you happy

If it's gonna let us be

If it's gonna hold us steady

Then it's what I need

(Oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh) It's what I want

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) 'Cause I want you, I need you

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
