Ellie Goulding – The Writer

Ellie Goulding – The Writer Lyrics

Artist: Ellie Goulding
Song: The Writer

You wait for a silence
I wait for a word
Lying next to your frame
Girl unobserved

You change your position
You’re changing me
Casting these shadows
Where they shouldn’t be

We’re interrupted
By the heat of the sun
Trying to prevent
What’s already begun

You’re just a body
I can smell your skin
And when I feel it
You’re wearing thin

But I’ve got a plan
Why don’t you be the artist
And make me out of clay
Why don’t you be the writer

Decide the words I say
Cause I’d rather pretend
I’ll still be there at the end
Only it’s too hard to ask

Won’t you try to help me
Sat on your sofa
It’s all broken springs
This isn’t the place for

Those violin strings
I try out a smile
And I aim it at you
You must have missed it

You always do
But I’ve got a plan
Why don’t you be the artist
And make me out of clay

Why don’t you be the writer
Decide the words I say
Cause I’d rather pretend
I’ll still be there at the end

Only it’s too hard to ask
Won’t you try to help me
You wait
I wait

Casting shadows
Interrupted
You wait
I wait

Casting shadows
Interrupted
You wait
I wait

Casting shadows
Interrupted
You wait
I wait

Casting shadows
Why don’t you be the artist
And make me out of clay
Why don’t you be the writer

Decide the words I say
Cause I’d rather pretend
I’ll still be there at the end
Only it’s too hard to ask

Won’t you try to help me
Why don’t you be the artist
And make me out of clay
Why don’t you be the writer

Decide the words I say
Cause I’d rather pretend
I’ll still be there at the end
Only it’s too hard to ask

Won’t you try to help me
