Constellations by Tom Odell Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We're sat around the table, the candle lying low
There's people all around us but they're leaving you alone
You're telling me a story, some lover that you had
Go on tell me now, tell me now, I think I'll understand
[Verse 2]
The piano man is playing, some old melody
It don't mean much to anyone what it does to you and me
It's just some bitter love song, that everybody's heard
I'm gonna sing it out, sing it out, sing every single word
[Chorus]
It's the same old constellation
Of stars up in the sky
Yeah, I've got a feeling
They're gonna look different tonight
[Verse 3]
Maybe I'm just crazy, maybe I'm just high
You could kiss my lips a thousand times and they would never dry
I don't know where you're going, but hey never stray too far
'Cause I tell you now, I tell you now, I like you just the way you are
[Chorus]
And it's the same old constellation
Of stars up in the sky
Yeah, I've got a feeling
They're gonna look different tonight
And it's the same old situation
That you could have with any guy
Go on put your arms around me
It's gonna be different tonight
[Bridge]
Caroline, Caroline, I used to act so strong
But I was just terrified, terrified, [gotta] feeling in my stomach
I call 'em butterflies, butterflies, there's something in the air tonight
They gone, they gone, they gone
[Outro]
It's the same old constellation
Of stars up in the sky
But you know I've got a feeling
They're gonna look different tonight
And it's the same old conversation
You can have it any time
Go on put your arms around me, baby
It's gonna be different tonight
We're sat around the table, the candle lying low
There's people all around us but they're leaving you alone
You're telling me a story, some lover that you had
Go on tell me now, tell me now, I think I'll understand
[Verse 2]
The piano man is playing, some old melody
It don't mean much to anyone what it does to you and me
It's just some bitter love song, that everybody's heard
I'm gonna sing it out, sing it out, sing every single word
[Chorus]
It's the same old constellation
Of stars up in the sky
Yeah, I've got a feeling
They're gonna look different tonight
[Verse 3]
Maybe I'm just crazy, maybe I'm just high
You could kiss my lips a thousand times and they would never dry
I don't know where you're going, but hey never stray too far
'Cause I tell you now, I tell you now, I like you just the way you are
[Chorus]
And it's the same old constellation
Of stars up in the sky
Yeah, I've got a feeling
They're gonna look different tonight
And it's the same old situation
That you could have with any guy
Go on put your arms around me
It's gonna be different tonight
[Bridge]
Caroline, Caroline, I used to act so strong
But I was just terrified, terrified, [gotta] feeling in my stomach
I call 'em butterflies, butterflies, there's something in the air tonight
They gone, they gone, they gone
[Outro]
It's the same old constellation
Of stars up in the sky
But you know I've got a feeling
They're gonna look different tonight
And it's the same old conversation
You can have it any time
Go on put your arms around me, baby
It's gonna be different tonight
