natasha bedingfiels lyrics

not giving up

Rubbing salt in my wounds
Like it don't hurt, like it don't hurt me
Your sweet bitter love songs
That seduce me with a sinister beat

I'm bringing out the worst in you
It was never my intention to
That was just unfair to do
Salt in my wounds
Getting burned up
With the negative heat

How can I stay mad with you?
When I'm so in love with you

I don't know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some how
You and me we got common ground
I'm not giving up, no

Are you looking for a way out?
Are you looking for an exit?
It seems like all the fuss you're making
Is a sign that you're not quite sure

Well, I don't recommend you to
Coz what we got's to good to lose
And I can tell you know that too
Or is it just aggravation
You're picking on me
You're rubbing salt in my wounds

How can I stay mad with you?
When I'm so in love with you

I don't know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some work
You and me we got common ground
I'm not giving up, no

I don't know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some work
You and me we got common ground
I'm not giving up, no

Maybe just a kind word now and then
Could turn it around and make us a happy end
But if this is it and the moment is gone
Well then I guess I must have just got it wrong

Wise as it sounds it just doesn't make sense
And as long as it takes I'm gonna keep on trying
Coz I'm not giving up on us
I'm not giving up, no

How can I stay mad with you?
I'm not giving up, no
When I'm so in love with you

I don't know what we argue about
When all we do is scream and shout
I still believe in our love right now
And its gonna work out some work
You and me we got common ground
I'm not giving up, no

No way, no way
I'm not giving up, no
No way, no way
I'm not giving up, no

soulmate

Incompatible, it don't matter though
'cos someone's bound to hear my cry
Speak out if you do
You're not easy to find

Is it possible Mr. Loveable
Is already in my life?
Right in front of me
Or maybe you're in disguise

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone

Here we are again, circles never end
How do I find the perfect fit
There's enough for everyone
But I'm still waiting in line

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone

If there's a soulmate for everyone

Most relationships seem so transitory
They're all good but not the permanent one

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
If there's a soulmate for everyone

pirate bones

What if I squeeze myself into any shape
And I still don't fit?
What if I bend myself so much that I break
And I can't mend it?
What if I burn so bright that the fire goes out
And I can't stay lit?
What's the point in it?
I could get good at crying crocodile tears
Just to get along
I could carry on telling you wanna hear
'til my voice is gone
But if I finally get to the place that I think is home
And I don't belong
What's the point in it?
Where's the benefit?
When I'm gaining all but I'm losing it

[Chorus:]
It's not worth having
If it's too much to hold
You can dig so deep
That you're left with a hole
Thirsty in a desert with a bag full of gold
Don't wanna end up like pirate bones
What I thought was precious was just a pile o' stones
I might have the treasure but I'd be lying alone
Just a pile of pirate bones
If I forfeit my soul it ain't worth having
If it's something I stole it ain't worth having

What if I stake everything I am on a dream
And it's counterfeit?
If I reach the end that justifies the means
Could I live with it?
And if it's true that having too much of any good thing
Could only make me sick
What's the point in it
Where's the benefit
When I'm gaining all but I'm losing it
Oh, oh

[Chorus]

It's not wroth that much to me
If losing out is what it means
To swim in shallow victory
Is empty, empty
It's just not worth the price
It's only a fools paradise
If it's draining every drop of life 'til I'm dry like pirate bones

[Chorus]
