Sam Fender & Elton John Talk To You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When my face has all changed from the cruelty of age
I'll still miss you
In a dream, you forgave me and I almost did it myself
Till I woke back up
I'm always procrastinating
Evading the job of going through them boxes in the attic
As long as they're in the dark
There's a flickering spark we'd repair

[Chorus]
Just wanna talk to you
Wanna talk with my best friend
Wanna let go of everything that I carry
Wanna shoulder some of yours instead
I wanna hurt with you
Hurt with somebody who understands
Have the strength to truly like myself
And have the love to take somеone's hand
[Verse 2]
I was down in the Low Lights, getting houndеd by moths and dickheads
Your uncle came in, I geared up for one on the nose
He was sombre and kind as I self-flagellated and grovelled
Told me to come back, but I cheated and it's over
Shrinks somehow link it all back to my upbringing
But I don't want an excuse for my mess [Chorus]
I just wanna talk to you
Wanna talk with my best friend
Wanna let go of everything that I carry
Wanna shoulder some of yours instead
I wanna hurt with you
Hurt with somebody who understands
Have the strength to truly like myself
And have the love to take someone's hand

[Post-Chorus]
I wanna talk to you
I wanna talk to you
Oh, I just wanna talk to you
Only wanna talk to you
Only wanna talk to you
Only wanna talk to you, talk to you
[Bridge]
Seven years wrapped in youth's great love
Picked me up and sucked the cancer from my bones
Your old man loved me like a son he never had
And I ate him outta house and home
I had love and I will never stop learning
My failures are my prized possessions
I don't deserve to talk to you
But I hope that I can root for you
Give 'em hell, darling

[Instrumental Outro]
