There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bringin' me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your shit bare
See how I'll leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bringin' me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinkin' that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you and I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Make a home down there as mine sure won't be shared
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love remind me of us
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it with a beating
Throw your soul through every open door (Wohh ho ho oh)
Count your blessings to find what you look for (Wohh oh oh oh)
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold (Wohh ho ho oh)
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
But you played it, you played it, you played it
You played it to the beat

It's been a while since we had a popular song with female vocals that didn't sound like some whispery, tentative, 82 pound emo flake recorded it. She sounds like she can slam a shot, take a punch, screw all night, and look pretty good the next morning. hehehehe (ok I'm being silly, but I do like this song) I agree, and I love her voice. I hope she stays around for awhile doing this kind of music. |

No wonder she's become so popular, or so I hear - I never listen to FM stations because they're uniformly sh1te, so I've not had chance to get fed up with this song. 8 from the aurally stunned Nottingham jury. |
| Hannio (Austin, TX) | Posted: Aug 15, 2011 - 06:36 She has a great voice and sings with gusto. Nevertheless, I am sick of hearing this yet again. |

| Grammarcop (The end of the Pointe) | Posted: Aug 08, 2011 - 15:12 Wow! With the kids gone, I had to wait until 6:08 p.m. EDT to hear this one today. Normally I would have heard it three times by 10 a.m. |
| Toke (Bournemouth UK) | Posted: Aug 06, 2011 - 04:52 Amazing number and for those people that are pissed with it let me hand on a wee bit of IT knowledge... on your sound system all manufactures provide an ''OFF'' button. Simplicity itself. Thanks for playing it Bill. |

| jptl (Potomac, MD) | Posted: Jul 08, 2011 - 06:30 Criticizing RP for playing music that's overplayed on the pop charts is like criticizing them for not playing popular music. RP clearly follows their own format - not what the pop charts indicate. So if you only listen to RP, I'd say this song fits in well. Problem is that if RP isn't your only source of music, this song is insidious. Some of us can't avoid occasional exposure to mainstream radio (I have 3 kids). Even they will jump stations when this comes on only to find it playing on the other pop station. This will go down as the most overplayed songs of the decade...maybe the millenium. Shame because it wasn't too bad 20,000 plays ago. |

| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Jun 23, 2011 - 13:42 Even the local A.M. radio station in my pitscratch town plays this song at least once a day. Funny thing, though - every time I hear it, I still catch myself thinking, "Day-am, this woman can SING!" (I still think "Sampson and Delilah" by Shirley Manson would go really well after this...) |

This could have been arranged much more conservatively and still have a wicked kick. For example... save the all-out belting of the chorus for the ending. and not repeat it ad nauseum. |
