Ellie Goulding - Wish I Stayed(2010)

[00:07.21] Why can't we speak another language, one we all agree on?
[00:16.76] Why when men look outside do they see houses
[00:20.48] Instead of the fields they grew from?
[00:26.33] We are constantly uprooted from them, making us tiresome and fearful
[00:35.79] Can you get up right now, endeavour to free-fall
[00:44.55] 'Cause you can fall if you want to
[00:47.36] It's just a matter of how far
[00:49.71] You treasured our home town
[00:51.58] You've forgotten where you are
[00:54.17] And it will stay with you until your mind's been found
[00:58.49] And it has been found wandering around
[01:03.31] With that skipping rope, the trampoline
[01:06.20] The crafty smoke that made us choke
[01:08.12] But we didn't give up hope
[01:12.89] It's the simple ways of getting paid
[01:15.56] The carelessness of running away
[01:17.82] And I wish I stayed
[01:20.93] I wish I stayed
[01:26.75] I wish I stayed
[01:32.30] Patterns all arranged in my background
[01:35.21] These pillars and posts keeping this country on form
[01:41.54] Letters were all sent with no addresses
[01:44.90] So that people can't discover
[01:48.84] We're always undercover
[01:51.12] Why do I always draw triangles
[01:53.97] Instead of words this paper so deserves?
[01:59.51] 'Cause you see
[02:00.73] I don't own my clothes, but I own my mind
[02:04.42] And it's not what you've lost
[02:06.83] But it's what you find
[02:09.21] You found that skipping rope, the trampoline
[02:12.04] The crafty smoke that made us choke
[02:14.49] But we didn't give up hope
[02:18.61] It's the simple ways of getting paid
[02:21.58] The carelessness of running away
[02:23.78] And I wish I stayed
[02:28.05] I wish I stayed
[02:32.54] I wish I stayed
[02:37.69] 'Cause you can fall if you want to
[02:40.34] It's just a matter of how far
[02:42.92] You've treasured our home town
[02:44.89] You've forgotten where you are
[02:46.95] And it will stay with you until your mind's been found
[02:52.12] And it has been found wandering around
[02:56.32] With that skipping rope, the trampoline
[02:59.24] The crafty smoke that made us choke
[03:01.38] But we didn't give up hope
[03:05.74] It's the simple ways of getting paid
[03:08.68] The carelessness of running away
[03:10.84] And I wish I stayed
[03:15.24] I wish I stayed
[03:19.79] I wish I stayed
[03:24.39] I wish I stayed
[03:28.05] I wish I stayed
[03:35.44]
