Goodness Gracious Lyrics

I lost the signal and put you away
Swore upon the sun I'd save you for a rainy day
Loosen the noose and let go of the rope
I know if it's never coming back it has to go

I keep callin' your name, keep callin' your name
I wanna hold you close but I never wanna feel ashamed
So I keep callin' at night, keep callin' at night
I wanna hold you close I just never I wanna hold you tight

Goodness Gracious I can see the stars
Callin' me out, callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms
Goodness gracious I can see the stars
Callin' me out, callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms

I found the weakness and put it to play
Swore upon the stars I'd keep you til the night was day
Shake my head dizzy so I'll never know
You said if you're never comin' back you have to go

I keep callin' your name, keep callin' your name
I wanna hold you close but I never wanna feel ashamed
So I keep callin' at night, keep callin' at night
I wanna hold you close I just never wanna hold you tight

Goodness gracious I can see the stars
Callin' me out, callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms
Goodness gracious I can see the stars
Callin' me out, callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms

Ah, callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms
Callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms

Oh my goodness, here I go again
Pullin' you back to me, pullin' you back into my arms so selfishly
I don't think I understand 'cause I don't really know myself
I keep callin' you callin' you out
Callin' you out, callin' you out, callin' you out

Goodness gracious I can see the stars
Callin' me out callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms
Goodness gracious I can see the stars
Callin' me out callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms

Ah, ah, callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms
Ah, ah, callin' me out just to keep crawlin' into your arms

Goodness Gracious

This Electro, tropically-infused tune finds Goulding singing about attempting to break free from a relationship but unable to sever the ties. She penned the song with Fun frontman Nate Ruess, who also co-wrote Pink's "Just Give Me A Reason" and Kesha's "Die Young." Goulding told Coup De Main magazine about their collaboration: "In Australia we first met and we hung out loads, and it turned out we were big fans of each other's writing," she said. "Sadly, we didn't get to write the song in the same room which was a shame, but he wrote his bit and I wrote my bit and I sent it back to him to see what he thought and thank goodness he liked it, because that would have been embarrassing if he didn't."

The collaboration between Ruess and Goulding didn't begin too promisingly. The Fun frontman avoided the English singer in a hotel lobby, only to sheepishly email her working together hours later. "We did a tour together in Australia, the Future of Music Tour, myself, Fun., Azealia Banks and a few other artists," Goulding explained to MTV News. "He walked past me in a hotel lobby, and then e-mailed me and was like 'I just walked past you and was too shy to say hello.' And I was like 'I was too shy too!'"

"And then we hung out and instantly hit it off. I think he's an amazing songwriter, and I love the way he writes lyrics. We went running and then we decided we wanted to write together," she continued. "We realized we had very similar taste in music, and we just wanted to do something, we didn't care what it was."

Goulding told Rolling Stone about this ode to fickleness. "I've been in situations where I knew someone wasn't right for me, yet I kept bringing them back," she said "The song is about dissing yourself for not thinking straight and not being fair."

Hearts Without Chains Lyrics

You wake up I know it's time to go
With a spinning head I lie and watch you smoke
Change the hands on my watch and hold you close
This misery is weightless as a stone

Have you lost the same things I have lost?
Do you know that panic I know?
Would I see the terror in your face?
Do you know that fever I know?
I wish time was still
We'd stay right here
With time to kill in our Hearts Without Chains

And if time was still
We'd have no fear or scars to heal
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains

You left everything behind except yourself
All I see is question marks and nothing else
You must've landed in New York by now
Please don't bring this love down

And have you lost the same things I have lost?
And do you know that panic I know?
And would I see the terror in your face?
Do you know that fever I know?

I wish time was still
We'd stay right here
With time to kill
In our hearts without chains

And if time was still
We'd have no fear
Or scars to heal
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains

Don't bring this love down
Don't bring this love down
Don't bring this love down
Don't bring this love down

I wish time was still
We'd stay right here
With time to kill
In our hearts without chains

And if time was still
We'd have no fear
Or scars to heal
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains

Hearts Without Chains

Goulding penned this breathless ballad with songwriter Fraser T Smith, who also co-penned Adele's hit single "Set Fire to the Rain." Smith was also responsible for producing UK chart-toppers for Tinchy Stryder ("Never Leave You," "Number 1"), Pixie Lott ("Boys and Girls") and Taio Cruz ("Break Your Heart").

This piano-backed ballad finds Goulding crooning about the misery of a long distance relationship. Her lover (most likely American electronic musician Skrillex) is about to fly away to New York and the misery she feels is "weightless as a stone." "It's my favorite song of the batch," she told Rolling Stone. "It has a folky English quality to it. Plus, it's quite nice to listen to and not be in the state I was when I wrote it."
