Close But Not Quite - Everything Is Recorded, Sampha

Fate let’s you fall into her arms without a word

And only the size of your breath that hurts

I’m not one to go to church

But you made me believe in something more than hurt

I feel like I don’t have the words

I feel like I don’t have the words

Because I can’t speak

Am I so naive?

I feel like I don’t have the words

Because I can’t speak

Of these words I’ve tried to recite

They are close but not quite

Of these words I’ve tried to recite

They are close but not quite

I’m so misunderstood, I’m so misunderstood

I’m so misunderstood, I’m so misunderstood

I don’t know what to believe in

I guess your eyes said enough

I guess your sigh said enough

All of these words, no they can’t express pain

It’s like my life ended, there’s not words that I’ve learned

Oh, and these are just words

And they can’t express pain

These are just words, oh words

That can’t express the pain, the pain in my soul

Speak the unspoken

A monster got woken up and now, now I’m in his part

Of these words I’ve tried to recite

They are close but not quite

Almost impossible to do

Reciting the makings of you
