Lyrics

(CN.C.)There’s a fi re start ing in my heart, reach ing a fe ver pitch and it’s bring ing me out the dark.

Fi nal ly I can see you crys tal clear, go a head and sell me out and I’ll lay your ship bare.

See how I leave with ev e ry piece of you, don’t un der es ti mate and the things that I your will do.

There’s a fi re the start ing in my heart, reach ing a fe ver pitch and it’s bring ing me out the dark.

The scars of your love re mind me of us, they keep me think ing that we al most had it all.

The scars of your love, they leave me breath less, I can’t help feel ing we could have had it all.

Roll ing in the deep.

You had my heart in side

your hand,

and you played it to the beat.

Ba by, I have no sto e ry to be told, but I’ve heard one on you and I’m gon na make your head burn.

Think of me in the depths of your de spair, mak ing a home down there as it’s mine sure me won’t be shared.

The scars of your love re mind me of us, they keep me think ing that we al most had it all.

The scars of your love, they leave me breath less, I can’t help feel ing we could have had it all.

Roll ing in the deep.

You had my heart in side

your hand,

and you played it to the beat.

it with the beat ing...

Throw your soul through ev e ry o pen door, count your bless ings to find what you look for.

Turn my sor row in to treas ured gold.

Pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow.

Yeah, we could have had it all.

We could have had it all.

It all, it all, it all.

Yeah.

We could have had it all.

Roll ing in the deep.

You had my heart in side

your hand,

and you played it to the beat.

You could have had it all.

Roll ing in the deep.

You had my heart in side

your hand,

and you played it to the beat.

You could have had it and you played and you played and you played it to the beat.
