Adele

If this is my last night with you,Hold me like I'm more than just a friend.Give me a memory I can use,Take me by the hand while we doWhat lovers do.It matters how this ends'Cause what if I never love again?

All I Ask, written by Adele, Bruno Mars, Philip Lawrence, and Christopher Brody Brown, 2015

I can't love you in the dark,It feels like we're oceans apart.There is so much space between us,Baby, we're already defeated.Ah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, everything changed me.

Love in the Dark, written by Adele and Samuel Dixon, 2015

I only wanted to have funLearning to fly, learning to run.I let my heart decide the wayWhen I was youngDeep down, I must have always knownThat this would be inevitableTo earn my stripes, I'd have to payAnd bare my soul.

Million Years Ago, written by Adele and Greg Kurstin, 2015

If you're gonna let me down, let me down gently.Don't pretend that you don't want me.Our love ain't water under the bridge.

Water Under the Bridge, 2015

Let me photograph you in this lightIn case it is the last time that we mightBe exactly like we were before we realisedWe were sad of getting old, it made us restless.It was just like a movie,It was just like a song.

When We Were Young, written by Adele and Tobias Jesso Jr., 2015

"I don't really need to stand out, there's room for everyone. Although I haven't built a niche yet, I'm just writing love songs."

as quoted in Adele - The Biography (2011), by Chas Newkey-Burden., 2011

I can't keep up with your turning tablesUnder your thumb, I can't breathe.I won't let you close enough to hurt me, no.I won't ask you, you to just desert me.I can't give you, what you think you gave me.It's time to say goodbye to turning tables.

Turning Tables, written by Adele and Ryan Tedder., 2011

But I set fire to the rain,Watched it pour as I touched your face,Well it burnt while I cried,Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!I set fire to the rainAnd I threw us into the flamesWell it felt like something diedCause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!

Set Fire to the Rain, written by Adele and Fraser T. Smith, 2011

"I love seeing Lady Gaga's boobs and bum. I love seeing Katy Perry's boobs and bum. Love it. But that's not what my music is about. I don’t make music for eyes, I make music for ears."

Adele in Rolling Stone, 28 April 2011., 2011

The scars of your love remind me of usThey keep me thinking that we almost had it all.The scars of your love they leave me breathless.I can't help feelingWe could have had it all.Rolling in the deep.You had my heart inside of your handAnd you played itTo the beat.

Rolling in the Deep., 2011

Bless your soul, you've got you're head in the clouds,You made a fool out of you,And, boy, she's bringing you down,She made your heart melt,But you're cold to the core,Now rumour has it she ain't got your love anymore.

Rumour Has It, written by Adele and Ryan Tedder, 2011

Never mind, I'll find someone like you,I wish nothing but the best for you, too.Don't forget me, I beg.I remember you said,"Sometimes it lasts in love,But sometimes it hurts instead."

Someone Like You, written by Adele and Dan Wilson, 2011

Round my hometown,Memories are fresh.Round my hometown,Ooh the people I've metAre the wonders of my world.

Hometown Glory, 2008

Should I give up,Or should I just keep chasing pavements?Even if it leads nowhere,Or would it be a waste?Even if I knew my place should I leave it there?Should I give up,Or should I just keep chasing pavements?Even if it leads nowhere.

Chasing Pavements, written by Adele and Eg White, 2008

I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaqueI love to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shadesI like it in the city when two worlds collideYou get the people and the governmentEverybody taking different sides.
