Ed Sheeran Curtains
Can you pull the curtains? Let me see the sunshine I think I'm done with my hidin' place and you found me anyway It's been forever, but I'm feelin' alright Tears dry and will leave no trace and tomorrow's another day Hide and seek, I am somewhere closed away You won't believe how long it's been since I started the game I can't be seen and you won't find me today I've not been this low, but I'll be okay "Are you alright?" Maybe don't ask 'Cause you know I never like to talk about that Keep it inside, yeah, you say I always hold back And I always wear long sleeves Is it in your childhood? Somethin' happen in your past? Well, the sadness, yeah, I promise that it won't last And if I could, I would try to take it all back There's still more underneath and that's when you say to me "Can you pull the curtains? Let me see the sunshine I think I'm done with my hidin' place and you found me anyway It's been forever, but I'm feelin' alright Tears dry and will leave no trace and tomorrow's another day" Let me see the sunshine, shine, shine Let me see the sunshine, shine, shine Let me see the sunshine, shine, shine Let me see the sunshine Hide and seek, count to ten and close your eyes Try to breathe, see a message and don't reply Nice to meet, but in reality, say goodbye Life can be so beautiful if you try "Are you okay?" Yeah, I guess so But, on some days, I feel like I'm trapped in a hole But I keep quiet, so the ones around me don't know That the mountain feels so steep And I'll say that I'm here to help to carry the load And the outside rays, they are good for the soul So, let's step out of the dark 'cause, in here, it's so cold The day's not out of reach and that's when you say to me "Can you pull the curtains? Let me see the sunshine I think I'm done with my hidin' place and you found me anyway It's been forever but I'm feelin' alright Tears dry and will leave no trace and tomorrow's another day" Let me see the sunshine, shine, shine Let me see the sunshine, shine, shine Let me see the sunshine, shine, shine Let me see the sunshine
The up-beat track eight to - (Subtract), the highly anticipated album by Ed Sheeran, is about hiding after having horrific moments happen in life, but finally feeling better, and wanting to see the sunshine, and feeling optimistic about what the future brings. On the track Sheeran is linking what he is doing to a game, hide and seek, even saying how the game starts, “count to ten and close your eyes”.
