Top 15 James Blunt Quotes

I'm not your son, you're not my father
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
No need to forgive, no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping, I'll try to make you proud
So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away.

Without your arms around me, without you on my skin
Without you on my body, I’m sorry, I’m sorry
I don’t mean to be desperate or pretend that I’m not torn
But I don’t want to let go of the things that keep me warm
Without you, I’m just cold.

Don't give me those eyes 'cause you know me and I can't say no to you
We can't have each other even if we wanted to
In another life, darling, I'll do anything to be with you
We can't have each other even if we wanted to
Don't give me those eyes, don't give me those eyes.

It's a little after midnight
There's a couple in the corner
And I wonder what he said because she's crying
And I guess they won't remember
When they wake up in the morning
With the headache from the whiskey and the wine
I know that I have said things I regret when I am sober
'Cause we always hurt the ones we love the most.

When I met you I was treading water
And baby I know you know I got an eye that wanders
But right now in this car that we're driving to your sister's
All I'm lookin' for is something that's forever.

I'm sending postcards from my heart
Your love for a postmark and then
You know that you make me feel like
We've been caught like kids in the schoolyard again
And I can't keep it to myself.

It's ok, cause I know
You shine even on a rainy day
And I can find your halo
Guides me to wherever you fall
If you need a hand to hold
I'll come running, because
You and I won't part till we die
You should know
We see eye to eye, heart to heart.

Your mouth is a revolver, firing bullets in the sky (Mh-mh-mh-mh)
Your love is like a soldier, loyal 'till you die (Mh-mh-mh-mh)
And I’ve been looking at the stars for a long, long time
I’ve been putting out fires all my life
Everybody wants a flame, they don’t want to get burnt
And today is our turn<p>Days like these lead to
Nights like this lead to
Love like ours
You light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don’t
Need that much, just some
One that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts.

If time is all I have,
I'll waste it all on you.
Each day I'll turn it back.
It's what the broken-hearted do.
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake.

So many voices,
Too many noises.
Invisible lies keeping us apart.
So many choices, but they're all disappointment
And they only steal me away from you.
Climb into our own private bubble,
Let's get into all kinds of trouble.

Tell me the wars you're fighting
Behind the smile you're hiding
All of the things I know you want to say
We tried our best to find us
But there are no lights to guide us
I can't sleep beside a stranger now
And piece by piece we fall apart
With every beat slows down my heart.

And if this is what we’ve got, then what we’ve got is gold
We’re shining bright and I want you, I want you to know
The morning’s on its way
Our friends all say goodbye
There’s nowhere else to go
I hope that you’ll stay the night
You'll stay the night.

Many prophets preach on bended knee,
Many clerics wasted wine.
Do the bloody sheets
On those cobbled streets mean
I have wasted time?

Trouble is her only friend and he's back again.
Makes her body older than it really is.
She says it's high time she went away.
No one's got much to say in this town.
Trouble is the only way is down,
Down, down.<p>As strong as you were, tender you go.
I'm watching you breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet,
I know what it means and I'll carry you home.
I'll carry you home.

Saw the world turning in my sheets
And once again, I cannot sleep.
Walk out the door and up the street,
Look at the stars beneath my feet.
Remember rights that I did wrong.
So here I go.
