Sunburn

Ed Sheeran · You Need Me [2011]

You're not her

Though I try to see you differently

I tow the line

You see I'm searching for what used to be, mine

I saw your eyes

And I saw Alice staring back at me

So I will try, to find another one

Who suited me, as well as her



I've moved far away from you

And I want to see you here beside me, dear

But things aren't clear



When we never even tried

We never even talked

We never even thought in the long run

Whenever it was painful

Whenever I was away

I'd miss you

I miss you



She was mine

I was hers

And all that's in between

If she would cry

I would shelter her

And keep her from the darkness that will be



If I moved far away from you

And I want to see you here beside me, dear

But things aren't clear



We never even tried

We never even talked

We never even thought in the long run

Whenever it was painful

Whenever I was away

I'd miss you

And I miss you



Don't drop me in

It's not my turn

If you cut deep

Then I might learn

That you scarred and left me

Like a sunburn



Don't drop me in

It's not my turn

If you cut deep

Then I might learn

That you scar and leave me

Like a sunburn



We never even tried

We never even talked

We never even thought in the long run

Whenever it was painful

Whenever I was away

I'd miss you

And I miss you
