Face In The Crowd (Live at Apollo)

Lyrics

[Spoken Intro] So, Hammersmith (Woo) It's kind of a real full-circle moment because The disco ball is coming down But, um (Woo) This song was actually written in the soundcheck Of the last time that I was in this venue And so four years later, to get to come back and play it It was a really surreal time in my life because On the outside, don't know if you've felt this But when you're going through a breakup, you can Really look like you have your shit together But, in your heart, you're always, just Searching for a face that you know and love And that you really long to see morе than anyone else's (Woo) So, um (Woo), this is for anyonе Who's still looking for that face in the crowd [Verse 1] God knows it cuts like a dagger That you think your heart doesn't matter 'Cause I do, yeah, I do I know we burn like a phoenix But I didn't want to believe it 'Cause I knew that it's true [Chorus] I didn't wanna let you down Saying this is all that you want It's everything you dreamed of I didn't wanna let you down, so I said I could give you up Thinking back on all that I've done And at every road I'm on A part of me has never stopped looking For your face in the crowd [Verse 2] God knows I want to believe that You were the love that I needed But it's lost and all 'cause [Chorus] I didn't wanna let you down Saying this is all that you want It's everything you dreamed of I didn't wanna let you down, so I said I could give you up Thinking back on all that I've done And at every stage I'm on A part of me has never stopped looking For your face in the crowd [Post-Chorus] In the crowd In the crowd In the crowd In the crowd Ooh-ooh-ooh [Chorus] I didn't wanna let you down Saying you were all that I want You're everything I dreamed of I didn't wanna let you down, so I said I could give you up Thinking back on all that I've done And how did I get it so wrong? A part of me will never stop looking For your face [Outro] Every airport, sidewalk New train I board A part of me will always be Praying for your face in the crowd
