When I’m Home

by James Blake

Lyrics
It’s not going in
It’s not going in
You reach for sharper tools
And now I can't forget
The sound of a drill
(The sound of a drill)
And now I can't forget
The sound of a drill

And I wonder what a real way to fall in love? (In love)
And I wonder what a real way to fall in love? (In love)

A face (Wait for you)
A fleet (For you)
A war

When it's not going in
It's not going in
You reach for sharper tools
(It's not going in)

Don't speak, hold him instead
Look up and see, the man on the ledge
And he will know what it was, when he's home
Don't, don't, don't, don't ask
What the feeling is
It's not easy, it's not easy
I will, I will know what it was
When I'm home (He)
I will know (Mm)

A face (High)
Drown in my feet (High)
Raising a fleet (High)
Patrollin’ the sea
Ending a war
Life on the sand
Dreaming of land
Sight of a man
Fantasiеs and dreams (Ooh)
A nightmare, a thought (Ooh)
Night tales and schеmes (Ooh)
I nailed the trick
Those spells was sick (Sick, sick)
A lost soul in Troy
My heart growing old

What happened to sticking to the plan, man?
I'm marching to this beach, I'm having band withdrawals
Ran to a god, I'm asking, “Please, leave me”
These tools I'm working with ain't really sharp at all
Looking for a siren, hoping that they call
Floating over water, I can hear those whole
Those whole (Those whole)

The sun is under you
'Der you, of you
The sun is under you (And now I can't forget)
'Der you, of you (The sound of a drill)

In my defense
In my defense
I will know
What I did worst
When I'm home, baby
I will know what I did worst
When I'm home
When I'm home
