Sweeter in History

Gabriella Cilmi

    Continues after the ad

    It all looked so good in your memory
    But it didn’t taste as sweet as it was meant to be
    How did I end up caught between two cities?
    Heaven knows that now I’m so out of touch
    Lost in time need to find, wanna feel that rush
    Still hear your whisper in my ear like you did before

    Oh, I heard you didn't get what you came for, baby
    I heard it wasn't all you thought it would be
    Time is a healer, but sometimes, baby
    Some things are sweeter in history
    Are sweeter in history

    Lord knows I tried but I can’t let go
    Stuck hanging on to something that we used to know
    You never wake the dead while they’re sleeping
    You show up thinking we can pick up where we left before
    I hate to tell you this but only ghosts can walk through walls
    Wishful thinking never took you where you need to go

    Oh, I heard you didn't get what you came for, baby
    I heard it wasn't all you thought it would be
    Time is a healer, but sometimes, baby
    Some things are sweeter in history
    Are sweeter in history

    Oh there’s a reason why I locked you away
    Because I’m trying to keep the memory the same
    Too good to be true, I knew
    I don’t know what you're hoping to find
    Oh, did you think that I'd just fall into line
    With your perfect design
    And everything would just be how it used to be?

    Oh, I heard you didn't get what you came for, baby
    I heard it wasn't all you thought it would be
    Time is a healer, but sometimes, baby
    Some things are sweeter in history
    Are sweeter in history
    Are sweeter in history
    Are sweeter in history
    Are sweeter in history
