I Found A Boy Lyrics - Adele

1 I thought I told you he'd be home soon

2 Couldn't help myself, you're too good to be true

3 I fall short each time, every time he ain't here

4 You and your charm creep closer, closer in here

5 Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all

6 Like a bomb before explosion, ticking by your call

7 You're the wiser one, disguised from greed

8 And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees

9 But I found a boy who I love more

10 Than I ever did you before

11 So stand beside the river, I cried

12 And let yourself down

13 Look how you want me now that I don't need you

14 So, you thought that I would crumble to my knees

15 At the first sight of you crawling back to me

16 To whisper, will you leave your man?

17 'Cause you swear that this time you can stand by me

18 I won't stand by you

19 'Cause I found a boy who I love more

20 Than I ever did you before

21 So stand beside the river, I cried

22 And let yourself down

23 Look how you want me now that I don't need you

24 I ain't yours for no taking

25 You must be mistaken

26 I could never look in your eyes and settle for wrong

27 And ignore the right

28 Well I found a boy who loves me more

29 Than you ever did before

30 So stand beside the river, you'll cry

31 And let yourself down

32 Look how you want me now that I don't need you
