Song of the Day - Adele - Rolling in the Deep
Recently a good friend of mine turned me on to British songstress Adele. Before I took a listen to her, I had noticed several of my Facebook friends mentioning her the past several weeks. I'd heard of her before, but never really took a listen until now.
All I can say is "what a voice!" This song is the first of her songs that I listened to and I loved it immediately. Both her voice and the sounds in this song remind me of something the great Dusty Springfield would've done. Take a listen as you read the strong, heartrending lyrics, and enjoy! Stay tuned for more to come...
Rolling in the Deep
There’s a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch, it’s bringing me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go head and sell me out and I’ll lay your shit bare
See how I leave with every piece of you
Don’t underestimate the things that I will do
There’s a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch
And its bring me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love they leave me breathless
I can’t help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart and soul
And you played it
To the beat
Baby I have no story to be told
But I’ve heard one of you
And I’m gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there
It Reminds you of the home we shared
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love they leave me breathless
I can’t help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart and soul
And you played it
To the beat
Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turned my sorrow into treasured gold
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow
We could have had it all
We could have had it all
It all, it all it all,
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart and soul
And you played it
To the beat
