James Bay One Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All I wanna be
Is with you in your arms
In our room living small, in a big house
I've been having dreams
Have you had them too?
I see me and you
By the door, rushing in from the rain at the back of the garden
Do you see that too?

[Pre-Chorus]
Forever ain't forever if we're not together
I don't wanna put a lot of pressure on you
I just wanna tell you, I just wanna tell you
Without you I don't know what I'd do
[Chorus]
I could never do this on my own
I've only got one life and I want you in it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Tell me that you'll never let me go
Oh, bury my body or send it down the river (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do it on my own

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I get sad
At the front, at the back
In the middle of the happiest moments
'Cause good things can turn bad, easily
So I don't wanna slow down
Wanna jump, wanna fly, wanna fall
I wanna hit the ground running
Do you wanna marry me?

[Chorus]
'Cause I've only got one life and I want you in it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Tell me that you'll never let me go (Never let me go)
Oh, bury my body or send it down the river (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh) I could never do it on my own (Do it on my own)

[Post-Chorus]
No, life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life without you
No, life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Forever ain't forever if we're not together
I don't wanna put a lot of pressure on you
I just wanna tell you, I just wanna tell you
Without you I don't know what I'd do

[Chorus]
We only get one try
I don't wanna miss it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Tell me that you'll never let me go, oh (I've only got)
I've only got one life
And I want you in it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, I don't wanna miss it)
Tell me that you'll never let me go (Never let go, I don't wanna do it without you, no)
Oh bury my body or send it down the river (Or send it down the river, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do it on my own (Do it on my own)

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life without you
No, life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life alone (Woah, oh)
Life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life without you (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do this on my own
