Rumour Has It
Adele/Musicfire.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She, she ain't real
She ain't gonna be able to love you like I will
She is a stranger
You and I have history
Or don't you remember
Sure, she's got it all
But, baby, is that really what you want
Bless your soul, you've got you're head in the clouds
You made a fool out of you
And, boy, she's bringing you down
She made your heart melt
But you're cold to the core
Now rumor has it she ain't got your love anymore

Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh

She is half your age
But I'm guessing that's the reason that you stayed
I heard you've been missing me
You've been telling people things that you shouldn't be
Like when we creep out and she ain't around
Haven't you heard the rumors

Bless your soul, you've got your head in the clouds
You made a fool out of me
And, boy, you're bringing me down
You made my heart melt, yet I'm cold to the core
But rumor has it I'm the one you're leaving her for

Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh
Rumor has it, ooh

All of these words whispered in my ear
Tell a story that I cannot bear to hear
Just 'cause I said it, it don't mean that I meant it
People say crazy things
Just 'cause I said it, don't mean that I meant it
Just 'cause you heard it

Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh,
Rumor has it, ooh





But rumor has it he's the one I'm leaving you for

Overall Meaning

In “Rumor Has It” by Adele/Musicfire.in, the singer warns an ex-lover who has moved on to a younger woman that his new relationship won’t be fulfilling or long-lasting. The song is a tongue-in-cheek celebration of gossip, as the singer revels in the rumors and allegations she has heard about the couple. She suggests that the new woman is a gold-digger who doesn’t understand the older man’s history or have the emotional depth to love him properly. The singer also reveals that while the man has been with his new partner, he hasn’t been able to get over her, and has been mentioning her to others.


The song has a jazzy, upbeat feel that belies the tension underneath the lyrics. The chorus repeats “Rumor has it” with a catchy beat, driving home the theme of hearsay that runs throughout the song. In the verses, Adele/Musicfire.in’s soulful voice imbues the lyrics with a sense of regret and longing, as she reflects on the relationship in the past tense. The lyrics also suggest that the singer is perversely enjoying the discomfort of her ex-lover and his new partner.

She is not genuine or sincere


She ain't gonna be able to love you like I will
She won't be able to love you the way I do


She is a stranger
She is unfamiliar, unknown


You and I have history
You and I have a shared past


Or don't you remember
Or perhaps you have forgotten


Sure, she's got it all
Admittedly, she has everything going for her


But, baby, is that really what you want
But, my dear, is that truly what you desire?


Bless your soul, you've got your head in the clouds
You are being naive and unrealistic


You made a fool out of you
You have made a mistake and look foolish


And, boy, she's bringing you down
And this woman is negatively affecting you


She made your heart melt
She melted your heart, won you over


But you're cold to the core
But fundamentally, you remain uninterested


Now rumor has it she ain't got your love anymore
Now there's talk going around that she no longer has your affections


She is half your age

I heard you've been missing me
I heard you've been longing for me


You've been telling people things that you shouldn't be
You've been sharing information that you really shouldn't disclose

You made a fool out of me
You have humiliated me


And, boy, you're bringing me down
And you are causing me emotional pain


You made my heart melt, yet I'm cold to the core

But rumor has it I'm the one you're leaving her for
But there are whispers that you intend to leave her for me


All of these words whispered in my ear
All of these secret, whispered words conveyed to me privately


Tell a story that I cannot bear to hear
Tell a story that I find unbearable to listen to


Just 'cause I said it, it don't mean that I meant it
Just because I said it, doesn't necessarily mean I meant it


People say crazy things
People make wild or illogical statements


Just 'cause you heard it
Just because you heard it from someone else


But rumor has it he's the one I'm leaving you for
But gossip has it that he is the one I plan to leave you for

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
Finally, I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare
See how I'll leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless

I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep

(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat

(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you and I'm gonna make your head burn

Think of me in the depths of your despair
Make a home down there as mine sure won't be shared
The scars of your love remind me of us
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)

They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)

I can't help feeling
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)

Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

Could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hands
But you played it with a beating
Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just what you've sown
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
But you played it
You played it
You played it
You played it to the beat.

Lyrics:
There's a fire
Starting in my heart,
Reaching a fever pitch,
It's bringing me out the dark.
Finally,
I can see you crystal clear.
Go ahead and sell me out
And I'll lay your ship bare.
See how I leave with every piece of you.
Don't underestimate
The things that I will do.
There's a fire
Starting in my heart,
Reaching a fever pitch,
And it's bringing me out the dark.

The scars of your love
Remind me of us.
They keep me thinking
That we almost had it all.
The scars of your love,
They leave me breathless.
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all.
Rolling in the deep.
You had my heart inside of your hand.
And you played it to the beat.

Baby, I have
No story to be told
But I've heard one on you.
And I'm gonna make your head burn.
Think of me
In the depths of your despair.
Make a home down there,
As mine sure
Won't be shared.

The scars of your love
Remind me of us.
They keep me thinking
That we almost had it all.
The scars of your love,
They leave me breathless.
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all.
Rolling in the deep.
You had my heart inside of your hand.
And you played it to the beat.
We could have had it all.
Rolling in the deep.
You had my heart inside of your hand.
But you played it with a beating.

Throw your soul
Through every open door.
Count your blessings
To find what you look for.
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold.
You'll pay me back in kind
And reap just what you sow.
We could have had it all.
We could have had it all.
It all, it all, it all.

We could have had it all.
Rolling in the deep.
You had my heart inside of your hand.
And you played it to the beat.
We could have had it all.
Rolling in the deep.
You had my heart inside of your hand.
But you played it,
You played it,
You played it,
You played it to the beat.
