Drop your location, she think she me or sum’ (Hendrix)
Put on my chains, now she think she me or sum’

[Verse 1]
You said, “Speak from your mind
The words that it finds
Come out of your soul, a part of the whole”
You said, “What does it change?
Both of us know
After tonight, there …
[TONY]
Maria…
The most beautiful sound I’ve ever heard:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
Maria, Maria…
Maria!
I’ve just met a girl named Maria
And …
[Verse 1]
What happens in dreams where we fly?
Never been as high as tonight
Staring through a window in time
For someone to show me what I’m like
He said, “Hello”, it’s like a …
[Verse 1]
Oh-oh-oh, every little smile hides a little lie
Could cut the silence with a knife
Subatomic bliss is nothing left to miss
It’s just empty Russian roulette
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to brush it off my …
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash out the pain1
And at most
I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you2
It keeps me awake
My friends I can figure out
You’re the soul that’s inside of you
It’s rock hard in another you
But your evil was coming through
These eyes sitting on the wall
Well they watch every move I make
Bright light taking in the shape
You go hard, makes my spirit shake3
(Ooh) I had to go through hell4 to prove I’m not insane
Had to meet the devil just to know his name5
And that’s when my love was burning
Yeah it’s still burning6
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most
I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most
I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Each time that I think you go
I turn around and you’re creeping in7
And I let you another skin8
‘Cause I love living in the sin9
Oh you never told me
True love was gonna hurt10
True pain, it’s own desert
True face that I never learned11
(Ooh) I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most
I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most
I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Stall the haunting baby
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
No more haunting baby12
I keep going to the river
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most
I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
I keep going to the river to pray
‘Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most
I’m sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Words like “river” and “wash” indicate that something must be cleansed from Ella Henderson’s life. She is actually singing about a past relationship that she is struggling to overcome.
“The ghost of you” is an expression used to communicate that it feels like someone is still around when he or she is clearly not there in the flesh. In this case, Ella Henderson is trying to get over an ex-lover.
While these two stanzas seem to describe a real ghost, Ella Henderson is still referring to her past partner. The eerie lyrics are figurative language that describe a relationship that, although now gone, still “haunts” her.
“Hell” here refers to the difficult trials one must overcome to get over a heartbreak.
The devil does not refer to anybody here. Ella Henderson is just trying to explain how difficult it was to overcome heartbreak.
By “It’s still burning,” Ella Henderson means to say that he love for her former romantic mate still exists.
“Creeping in” means the ex-lover also hasn’t fully abandoned the relationship.
“Skin” refers to being used for sex.
The sin is another way Ella Henderson described the remnants of her relationship. She is clinging to those remains, such as sex, to try to save a relationship that was once a true, deep relationship.
The singer mourns over her loss.
“True face that I never learned” means that her ex-partner was trying to be someone he was not.
“Give up the ghost” and “no more haunting” are lyrics that refer to overcoming heartbreak, letting go of a romantic idea.
