For Those I Love - The Shape of You Lyrics




This is the first song I've made in months,
In a box bedroom beside a death in a book.
I just told me Ma the treatments not working,
And she understands,
I see the tears in her eyes and the care in her hands.
Sometimes that's all ya need to find the strength to breathe,
I have a family I love,
And they love me.

I still see you smile
As you float in the sky
Miles high as you rise
Still clear in my eyes
Still as bright as every night we danced til 5
I still see the light in every one of the boys
My guides out of the dark of night
So I will try.

Doing 5 tracks a day
For two summers.
I deserve to make it through these traumas.
These songs are here to pay honour
To those left that flock together like birds over Tolka.
My way is to make stay
Feel those flames burn the shame
As the boys blaze jays for days
At my Ma's place
And I finally feel OK.

Wake up in a hospital bed out of me head and me leg snapped in two.
No clue where I am or what to do.
Bouncing in and out of sleep, too weak to speak
And no heat in the white sheets.
No money,
No passport,
And totally alone.
Dead battery in me phone
Just the groans of post surgery fear,
Nobody here will speak to me,
All I find out is I'm in Belgium and had an accident the night before,
No less and no more,
Just the growing terror of 18 year old fear roars,

Til your dumb head rocks in the door
With a bottle of Coke in your hand and another one of the boys by your side.
Smiles for miles as I see safety in sight
And you bounce me into a wheelchair and run me out into the freedom of night,
No meds to heal the head,
No bread to stay fed,
Just crutches and a cast up my leg,
Take me home across trains and planes
Until we meet Dublin rain
And me Da losing his f*cking mind
Me Ma crying
And you secretly in delight at the sight of all the madness,
Ya said stories to tell never breed sadness,
They treat it,
And if you can grasp it,
Own it, deal with it,
You can heal with it.
So I'll heal with it

Patient and free
Will heal the pain that's left in me
And that's the truth
The fear in my bones,
Is the only growth I know,
We had our youth
