"Porcelain" (2013)




In Chains lyrics - Matt Cardle

Come on, summer lovin'
Come on, summer love

I'm so sick of this winter
My faith has frozen up
I need a new heart
I need a new home
I need somebody to heal
This broken old bones

But when I run 
The siren sings my name

Oh, I'm in chains
I'm a sucker for the pain
Nothing will change
'Til I learn to break away

Oh, I'm in chains
But I'll never feel ashamed
When I'm loving you
'Cause I'm loving you

Come on, self respect
Come on, self control

Got me so conditioned
I need to be absolved
I'm picking up sticks
I'm picking up stones

She smiles 
And all that she knows
They'll never be thrown
And as I run I'm falling for her games

Oh, I'm in chains
I'm a sucker for the pain
Nothing will change
'Til I learn to break away

Oh, I'm in chains
But I'll never feel ashamed
When I'm loving you
'Cause I'm loving you

No shame
You got me choking on your chain
No shame
You got me choking on your chain
No shame
You got me choking on your chain

No shame
I'm just your sucker
But when I run
A siren sings my name

Oh, I'm in chains
I'm a sucker for the pain
Nothing will change
'Til I learn to break away

Oh, I'm in chains
So why won't you let me 
RUN?

Oh, I'm in chains
I'm a sucker for the pain
Nothing will change
'Til I learn to break away

Oh, I'm in chains
But I'll never feel ashamed
When I'm loving you
'Cause, baby, I'm loving you

Loving You lyrics - Matt Cardle (feat. Melanie C)

Leave your door open
I wanna come over
The night
Is only young

I wanna get under
Your body
Take you over
Come undone

But why do we only give it up
Give it up in the dark
Cause I can't help thinking it's not enough
It's not enough for this heart

Who do you think about when I'm not with you?
Does somebody hold you when you let me go?
You can't hide, you can't lie
Cos baby I'm loving, loving, loving you

I could tell myself that I don't need you
I could try to run away from the truth
I can't hide, I can't lie
Cos baby I'm loving, loving, loving you

My door is open
Come on over
The night
Is still young

I wanna get over
Your body
Take you under
Come undone

But why do we only give it up
Give it up in the dark
And I can't help thinking it's not enough
It's not enough for this heart

Who do you think about when I'm not with you?
Does somebody hold you when you let me go?
You can't hide, you can't lie
Cos baby I'm loving, loving, loving you

I could tell myself that I don't need you
I could try to run away from the truth
I can't hide, I can't lie
Cos baby I'm loving, loving, loving you

Would it change if I asked you to stay
If I pulled would it push you away
But it's just the chance I'll take
Cause I want your loving

Who do you think about when I'm not with you?
Does somebody hold you when you let me go?
You can't hide, you can't lie
Cos baby I'm loving, loving, loving you

I could tell myself that I don't need you
I could try to run away from the truth
I can't hide, I can't lie
Cos baby I'm loving, loving, loving you
Baby I'm loving, loving, loving you
Baby I'm loving, loving, loving you

When You Were My Girl lyrics - Matt Cardle

You tell me that you want me
You're thinking that you walk back in my life again
Saying you need me
But I've been hearing stories from mistaken friends

When someone said you sold me out
You sold me out
I tried to shut it out
But it's too late

All those tears I watched you fake
Thinking I was doing you wrong
And now I hear it's my mistake
'Cause you were never sleeping alone
When you were my girl
When you were my girl

I told you I was sorry
How could you lie so easily right to the end?
You wanna hold me
But I don't find it that easy to pretend

When someone said you sold me out
You sold me out
I tried to shut it out
But it's too late

All those tears I watched you fake
Thinking I was doing you wrong
And now I hear it's my mistake
'Cause you were never sleeping alone
When you were my girl
When you were my girl
When you were my girl
When you were mine

All those tears I watched you fake
Thinking I was doing you wrong
And now I hear it's my mistake
'Cause you were never sleeping alone
When you were my girl

All those tears I watched you fake
Thinking I was doing you wrong
And now I hear it's my mistake
'Cause you were never sleeping alone
When you were my girl
When you were my girl
When you were my girl

Hit My Heart lyrics - Matt Cardle

If you can find heaven
I show you how to lose it
How to build a castle
And take it down brick by brick

I'm sick of running in circles
Living by the moonlight
Waiting for the moment
When my blues aren't black and white

So come on baby, show your face
Everybody knows your name
Show me just a little grace

You got me on my knees
So lift me up, love
'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

I'm sending out a signal
The only way to lose it
Is come a little closer
And tear me up bit by bit

So come on baby, show your face
Everybody knows your name
Show me just a little grace

You got me on my knees
So lift me up, love
'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

You got me on my knees
I just need a little bit of your love
So lift me up

Get me to my feet
I just need a little bit of your love
So lift me up

You got me on my knees
So lift me up, love
'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

So lift me up, love
'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

'Cause my heart
Is begging for a beat
Come, and get it started
Love, love, hit my heart
Come, a little harder

You got me on my knees
I just need a little bit of your love
So lift me up

Get me to my feet
I just need a little bit of your love
So lift me up

A Little Too Late lyrics - Matt Cardle

In crimson skies
I hear the devil cry
I'm done borrowing time
You went and cross the line
Must've lost your mind

We don't matter now
Forget it
It's a little too late now
'Cause you're getting away
Getting away from love
So don't keep running from the truth
It's a little too late now
It's a little too late now

We're gonna sink in a sea
To a place of tears
When you're spinning that way up
Tell me what are you trying to prove?
No matter what hand you play, you lose

It just don't matter now
Forget it
It's a little too late now
'Cause you're getting away
Getting away from love
So don't keep running from the truth
It's a little too late now

I'm taking it back again
The heart that was in your hands
But I will never forgive 
The way you can pretend 
Just feed me another lie
'Cause you played me for the last time

It's a little too late now
'Cause you're getting away
Getting away from love
So don't keep running from the truth
It's a little too late now

Not Over You lyrics - Matt Cardle

I'm here in your shadow
Broken on the floor
It will never be
The way it was before
I think you feel it, too
I'm not over you

When I look in the mirror
It's difficult to believe
That the man in the mirror
Staring back at me
Is blinded by the truth
I'm not over you

I'm not over you
I'm not over you
I tried to fight it 
But I know there's just no use
I'm not over you

If you need somebody
While you're playing solitaire
Just let me be that body
Even though you're in repair
I think you feel it, too
I'm not over you

I'm not over you
No, I'm not over you
I tried to fight it 
But I know there's just no use
I'm not over you

I should have been the one 
To make you happy
But I didn't pass the test
Just like all the rest

And every time I cry
I hear you laughing
Though I wish you all the best
It doesn't hurt any less

I'm missing you

I'm not over you
No, I'm not over you
No, I'm not over you
I'm not over you

And you feel it

Mouth To Mouth lyrics - Matt Cardle

I can't feel
I can't breath
Condition critical
I can't feel my heart beneath
And my blood it runs so cold

No sign of life

I know what's happening to me
I don't need a doctor
You can give me what I need
In my heart and in my soul

Before I flatline

(Save me)

I'm going down
It's an emergency
I need you now
Won't you rescue me?

Without your kiss
No, I'm not gonna make it
Won't you help me out?
I need a little bit of
Mouth to mouth

Won't you help me out?
I need a little 
Mouth to mouth

I am man not machine
I am physical
Won't you put your lips on me?
Won't you pull my body close?

And bring me to life!

(Save me)

I'm going down
It's an emergency
I need you now
Won't you rescue me?

Without your kiss
No, I'm not gonna make it
Won't you help me out?
I need a little bit of
Mouth to mouth

Won't you help me out?
I need a little 
Mouth to mouth

(SOS)
(Save me)

Only you can save me!

Won't you help me out?
Won't you help me out?

I'm going down
It's an emergency
I need you now
Won't you rescue me?

Without your kiss
No, I'm not gonna make it
Won't you help me out?
I need a little bit of
Mouth to mouth

I'm going down
It's an emergency
I need you now
Won't you rescue me?

Without your kiss
No, I'm not gonna make it
Won't you help me out?
I need a little bit of
Mouth to mouth

Won't you help me out?
I need a little 
Mouth to mouth

Your Kind Of Love lyrics - Matt Cardle

And now we're alone
Oh Baby, can I be open?
I think I'm ready for another one

Swallow your words
Because too many get spoken
And I don't wanna hear another one

So gimme your lips
And gimme the rest
Dig in with your hips
And put your hands on my chest

[?]
She's telling me

Baby, take me
I wanna feel your kind of love 
Tonight I want you on top
Giddy up!
I wanna get deeper in your love

I wanna feel your
Love

Never too much
'Cause I'm a little bit [?]
Can't help it
I can feel it comin' on

Never enough
So come on, feed me
Don't speak
'Cause any word I'm hanging on

So gimme your lips
And gimme the rest
Dig in with your hips
And put your hands on my chest

And now she's telling me

Baby, take me
I wanna feel your kind of love 
Tonight I want you on top
Giddy up!
I wanna get deeper in your love

She's saying

Baby, take me
I wanna feel your kind of love 
Tonight I want you on top
Giddy up!
I wanna get deeper in your love

I wanna feel your
Love

Everytime she breaks my body
And she bends my mind
Everytime she hits me
With that same old line

She said

Baby, take me
I wanna feel your kind of love 
Tonight I want you on top
Giddy up!
I wanna get deeper in your love

She said

Baby, take me
I wanna feel your kind of love 
Tonight I want you on top
Giddy up!
I wanna get deeper in your love

I wanna feel your
Love

This Trouble Is Ours lyrics - Matt Cardle

It's where I am, it's where you are
Heal the cuts and wear the scars
We're wrecking balls in camouflage
The trouble is this trouble's ours

Like rebels falling into [?]
His devil hands on her angel face 
We can't run and hide from who we are
The trouble is this trouble's ours
The trouble is this trouble is ours

Oh, love
There's no doubt
It's real love
Trouble please, don't take her now
Trouble please, don't take her now

Sat alone through silent nights
Back to back in silent fights
With heavy words and heavy hearts
The trouble is this trouble's ours
The trouble is this trouble is ours

Oh, love
There's no doubt
It's real love
Trouble please, don't take her now
Trouble please, don't take her now

Sat alone through silent nights
Back to back in silent fights
We run and hide from who we are

The trouble is this trouble is ours
Trouble please, don't take her now

The trouble is this trouble is ours
Trouble please, don't take her now

The trouble is this trouble is ours

Oh, love
There's no doubt
It's real love
Trouble please, don't take her now
Trouble please, don't take her now
Trouble please, don't take her now

Porcelain lyrics - Matt Cardle

Some people walk blinded to the light
Head down just dragging their shadow behind
Some people don't wanna seem to ever change
But it's people like you
Who make it through the rain

And if you don't break
It's only gonna make you stronger
Only gonna take you closer

All the things in this life
That you thought you just couldn't bear
It's the pressure inside
Makes the diamond that's shining there

All the pain and the heartache
Can break you and chafe you like clay
Now you've come through the fire
And that makes you Porcelain

Porcelain

Some people make a diamond out of glass
Some people still win all though they finish last
Some people shine through the darkest night alone
Yet there's people like you
Who always gonna see the dawn

All the things in this life
That you thought you just couldn't bear
It's the pressure inside
Makes the diamond that's shining there

All the pain and the heartache
Can break you and chafe you like clay
Now you've come through the fire
And that makes you Porcelain

Porcelain 
You're Porcelain

All the things in this life
That you thought you just couldn't bear
It's the pressure inside
Makes the diamond that's shining there

All the pain and the heartache
Can break you and chafe you like clay
Now you've come through the fire
And that makes you Porcelain

And if you don't break
It's only gonna make you stronger
It's only gonna take you closer

Now you're Porcelain

I won't break
Just make me stronger
Just take me closer

It's Only Love lyrics - Matt Cardle

It's a kick in the head so close your eyes
Some say it's dead, but we're alive
And it has no use anymore

It's a losing game that I won't play
I know full well, it isn't here to stay
It has no use anymore

Just get a hold of your heart and set it on fire
You don't need it now, you'll be alright cause

Did you think it would hold you?
Did you think it would carry you?
Did you think it would save you?
Did you think it would see you through?
It's only love, it's only love

Don't let it push you to your knees
You don't have to fall, lean on me
It has no use anymore

Just get a hold of your heart and set it on fire
You don't need it now, you'll be alright 'cause

Did you think it would hold you?
Did you think it would carry you?
Did you think it would save you?
Did you think it would see you through?
It's only love, it's only love

Did you think it would hold you?
Did you think it would carry you?
Did you think it would save you?
Did you think it would see you through?
It's only love, it's only love

It won't hold you
It won't carry you
It won't save you
It won't see you through
It's only love, it's only love

Did you think it would hold you?
Did you think it would carry you?
Did you think it would save you?
Did you think it would see you through?
It's only love, it's only love

It won't hold you
It won't carry you
It won't save you
It won't see you through
It's only love, it's only love

The Fire lyrics - Matt Cardle

You held me over the fire
Why d’you have to prove it to yourself
I told you, nobody here is a liar
Would you burn me till there’s nothing left
So put me out, out
And while you push I’m trying to figure out, out, out

Just why you keep on begging, begging
Time and time again, to hear I love you, love you
Darling don’t you understand I do, I do, no doubt
Now I’m begging, begging, we gotta put this fire out

You take it down to the wire
You won’t surrender but I won’t let you fall, it’s your fight
Your courage I admire
You got my life, seems you don’t want it at all
You just put me down, down
And while you push I’m trying to figure out, out, out

Just why you keep on begging, begging
Time and time again, to hear I love you, love you
Darling don’t you understand I do, I do, no doubt
Now I’m begging, begging, we gotta put this fire out

For Every Heartbreak lyrics - Matt Cardle

When I bend my mind I find, it’s crystal clear
When I stand alone I know, I have no fear
I feel sick inside at times, I feel you near
Pain is kind enough to remind me, I don’t need you here

I was coming undone, now I’m coming up swinging
Seemed like the end but it’s only the beginning
When there’s no hurt, there’s no healing
For every heartbreak there’s a reason

Twixt the broken hearts is a love we can recover
But the crime suggests I could think no less of her
You were my best friend, my leader and my lover
I could have laid with you till the end, like no other

I was coming undone, now I’m coming up swinging
Seemed like the end but it’s only the beginning
When there’s no hurt, there’s no healing
For every heartbreak there’s a reason

Water lyrics - Matt Cardle

Snow fall on the tree tops, the streets are bare
Bright lights in the windows, and up the stairs
All of your silence, and all of your songs
I still hear the choir, but you are gone

Can’t go back
Can’t fight this

Water, water
Teardrops are falling like rain
Brother, daughter
Still I hear you calling my name
Oh, I see your light
In the water, for all my life

Walking on a tight rope
Coming undone
‘Cos you were my hero
When I was young
We live but we never know
Were lost in the wind
A million candles just flickering
Can’t go back, can’t fight this

Water, water
Teardrops are falling like rain
Brother, daughter
Still I hear you calling my name
Oh, I see your light
In the water, for all my life

Oh, lifted high
Let me lay down at your side
Here I stay
Until your soul comes back to mine

Water, water
Teardrops are falling like rain
Brother, daughter
Still I hear you calling my name
Oh, I see your light
In the water, for all my life

Anywhere lyrics - Matt Cardle

I’ve been sleeping, with both eyes wide open
I’ve been waiting for a moment like this
Painted these faces, over and over,
Seen these same places, so many times before
Just leaves me wanting more, now I’m standing at your door

All the fears, wasted years, pay no mind to it,
Now it’s clear, Now I’m here,
For all the time that I used to care
Now I’m anyone, anywhere

I want love, I want freedom,
I wrote the books but I don’t read them at all
When the writings on the wall

All the fears, wasted years, pay no mind to it,
Now it’s clear, Now I’m here,
For all the time that I used to care
Now I’m anyone, anywhere

Whatever you want to feel, it’s alright
You’re whoever you want to be here tonight

All the fears, wasted years, pay no mind to it,
Now it’s clear, Now I’m here,
For all the time that I used to care
Now I’m anyone, anywhere

Anyone Else lyrics - Matt Cardle

Get up I’m ready baby, for a little more if you’re feeling it
On top go steady baby, are you ready, are you ready,
I know you’re not my lady, oh but I don’t care ‘cos I’m feelin’ it
I know it’s pretty crazy but I want it and you want it

I can’t stand to be with anyone else
Can’t stand it
Can’t stand it

To make a little love to you was all I ever really needed
I don’t wanna * these girls they only bring me down
I wanna look into your eyes and find a way to stay forever, forever
‘Cos I can’t stand to be with anyone else

Get up, get out now baby
You’re not the one I’m not feeling it
You don’t swing the way she swayed me,
Never ready, never ready
To put it pretty plainly, I miss the love I miss making it
I miss lying with my lady
Come and save me, come and save me

I can’t stand to be with anyone else
Can’t stand it
Can’t stand it

To make a little love to you was all I ever really needed
I don’t wanna * these girls they only bring me down
I wanna look into your eyes and find a way to stay forever, forever
‘Cos I can’t stand to be with anyone else
