Adele-Turning Tables

Anyone who is friends with me knows that I love Adele. Deep love.  Like now that I live in DC, I would marry her and it would be legal love.  She has a new album out "21" which is amazing.  I highly recommend it.

So tonight, I wanted to share the lyrics to my favorite song (well, one of them) on the album.

"Turning Tables"

Close enough to start a war,
All that I have is on the floor,
God only knows what we're fighting for,
All that I say, you always say more,

I can't keep up with your turning tables,
Under your thumb, I can't breathe,

So 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,
To turning tables,

Under hardest guise I see, ooh,
Where love is lost, your ghost is found,
I braved a hundred storms to leave you,
As hard as you try, no, I will never be knocked down,

I can't keep up with your turning tables,
Under your thumb, I can't breathe,

So, 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,

Next time I'll be braver,
I'll be my own savior,
When the thunder call for me,
Next time I'll be braver,
I'll be my own savior,
Standing on my own two feet,

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,
To turning tables,
Turning tables, yeah,
Turning, oh.

And because I love all six people who read this stupid thing, I'm including the link to a video of her performing it live.  Which sounds exactly like her album.
