James Arthur – Recovery lyrics
[Verse:]
I don’t wanna play this game no more
I don’t wanna play it
I don’t wanna stay round here no more
I don’t wanna stay here


Like rain on a Monday morning
Like pain that just keeps on going on

[Verse:]
Look at all the hate they keep on showin
I don’t wanna see that
Look at all the stones they keep on throwin
I don’t wanna feel that

Like sun that will keep on burning
And I used to be so discerning oh

[Pre-Chorus:]
In my recovery
I’m a soldier at war

I have broken down walls
I defined, I designed
My recovery
In the salt of the sea
In the oceans of me
I defined, I designed
My recovery

[Chorus:]
(Falling, I fall right in
Falling, I fall right in
Recovery, recovery
Recovery, recovery)
My recovery
(Falling, I fall right in
Falling, I fall right in
Recovery, recovery
Recovery, recovery)

[Verse:]
And I can hear the choirs keep on singing
Tell me what they’re saying
I can hear the phone, it keeps on ringing
I don’t wanna answer

I know what I used to listen
And I know I’ve become dismissive

[Pre-Chorus:]
In my recovery
I’m a soldier at war
I have broken down walls
I defined, I designed
My recovery
In the salt of the sea
In the oceans of me
I defined, I designed
My recovery

[Chorus:]
(Falling, I fall right in
Falling, I fall right in
Recovery, recovery
Recovery, recovery)
My recovery
(Falling, I fall right in
Falling, I fall right in
Recovery, recovery
Recovery, recovery)

[Bridge:]
Recovery… recovery…
Recovery… recovery…
Recovery… recovery…
Recovery… recovery…

[Pre-Chorus:]
In my recovery
I’m a soldier at war
I have broken down walls
I defined, I designed
My recovery
In the salt of the sea
In the oceans of me
I defined, I designed
My recovery

[Chorus:]
(Falling, I fall right in
Falling, I fall right in
Recovery, recovery
Recovery, recovery)
My recovery
(Falling, I fall right in
Falling, I fall right in
Recovery, recovery
Recovery, recovery)

Soaring, keep so… right in
