Niña
Ed Sheeran.. Lyrics

I met you when I was a teen
I first met you when we were both teenagers

But then you were one as well
But you were also just a teenager like me

And I could play the guitar just like ringing a bell
I was really good at playing the guitar, it came as easy as ringing a bell

Sometimes I wonder, in any other summer
I sometimes ponder if in a different summer, things would have been different between us

Could you have been my part time lover
Would you have been willing to have a casual relationship with me?

To me listening to Stevie Wonder
We would listen to Stevie Wonder together

Under the covers where we used to lay
We would cuddle under the covers

And 'Re: Stacks' is what the speakers played
We would listen to the song 'Re: Stacks' by Bon Iver

I'd be on tour almost every day
I was almost always on tour

When I was home up in my flat is where we used to stay
But when I was home, we would be at my apartment

Just watching the DVD, smoking illegal weed
We would pass the time watching DVDs and smoking marijuana

Getting high as two kites when we needed to breathe
It helped us relax and breathe easier

We used each other's air just for the people to see
We would pretend to be in love to impress others

And stay up all night like when we needed to sleep
We would stay up all night even if we needed to sleep

We go anywhere, our minds would take us
We were spontaneous and would go anywhere that came to mind

And I'll say you are beautiful without your make-up
You are naturally beautiful, you don't need makeup

And you don't even need to worry about your weight 'cause
You don't have to worry about your weight

We can all be loved the way that God made us
We can all be loved for who we naturally are

And time's the only reason that we could break up
Time is the only thing that could tear us apart

Cause you would always tell me I'm away too much
Because you always told me I was gone too often

Distance is relative to the time that it takes
Distance is measured by the time it takes to bridge it

To get on a plane or make a mistake, so say it again
To either travel or mess up, so let's go over it again

Oh, Nina
Addressing Nina directly

You should go, Nina
You should probably leave, Nina

'Cause I ain't never coming home, Nina
Because I won't be coming back home, Nina

Oh, won't you leave me now?
Asking Nina to leave me now

And I've been living on the road, Nina
I've been traveling a lot, Nina

But then again you should know, Nina
But you already know that, Nina

'Cause that's you and me both, Nina
Because we both have a nomadic lifestyle, Nina

Now?
Asking if she will leave now

And every weekend in the winter, you'd be wearing my hoodie
In winter, you would always wear my hoodie

With drawstrings pulled tight to keep your face from the cold
You would tighten the drawstrings to protect your face from the cold

Taking day trips to the local where we'd eat on our own
We would go on day trips to a nearby place to eat alone

'Cause every day when I was away we'd only speak on the phone
Because we could only talk on the phone when I was away

Watching Blue Planet, creating new habits
We would enjoy watching 'Blue Planet' and forming new habits together

Acting as if we were two rabbits and then you'd vanish
We would act like two rabbits, then you would disappear

Back to the burrow with all the Celtics
You would return to your home with all of your Celtic belongings

I disappear, you call me selfish
I would disappear and you would call me selfish

I understand but I can't help it
I understand your perspective but I can't change who I am

I put my job over everything except my family and friends
My job is my top priority after my family and friends

But you'll be in between forever so I guess we'll have to take a step back
But you will always be in between, so we need to take a break and reevaluate our situation

Overlook the situation
Trying to view the situation objectively

'Cause mixing business and feelings will only lead to complications
Combining business and emotions will only cause problems

And I'm not saying we should be taking a break
I'm not suggesting we should take a break

Just re-evaluate quick before we make a mistake and it's too late
We need to quickly rethink things before it's too late to fix anything

So we can either deal with the pain or wait to get on a plane
We can either bear the pain of separation or wait until we can reunite

But in a day we'll have to say it again
But we'll have to go through this all over again in a day

Love will come and love will go
Love is always changing and evolving

But you can make it on your own
But you're strong enough to handle it alone

Sing that song, go, oh won't you leave me now?
Sing that song, please, and leave me now

People grow, and fall apart
People change and relationships can end

But you can mend your broken heart
But you're capable of mending your heart after a breakup

Take it back, oh won't you leave me now?
Take it back and leave me now

Oh Nina (love will come and love will go)
Addressing Nina again (love is always changing)

You should go Nina (but you can make it on your own)
You should leave, Nina, but you can handle it alone

'Cause I ain't never coming home (sing that song, go)
Because I won't be coming back home (please sing that song and leave)

And then again you should know Nina (but you can mend your broken heart)
But you already know that, Nina, and you're strong enough to mend your heart

'Cause that's you and me both in a road (take it back)
Because we both have a nomadic lifestyle and should take a step back

Won't you leave me now? Now?
Will you please leave me now?

And I've been living on the road Nina (people grow, and fall apart)
I've been traveling a lot, Nina, and relationships can end

And then again you should know Nina (but you can mend your broken heart)
But you already know that, Nina, and you can handle heartbreak
