Glee Cast Featuring Jonathan Groff (Jesse) and Lea Michele (Rachel) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Reaching a fever pitch,
It's bringing me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go head and sell me out
And I'll lay your ship bare
See how I leave with every piece of you
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch
And its 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
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 of you
And I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making 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
With a beating
Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turned my sorrow into treasured gold
You 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 your hand
And you played it
To the beat
You could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played
And you played
And you played
And you played it to the beat

There's a fire starting in my heart
I am feeling a strong burning passion inside of me
Reaching a fever pitch,
It's getting more intense and hot
It's bringing me out the dark
It's helping me see things clearly
Finally I can see you crystal clear
I can see you very clearly now
Go head and sell me out
Betray me if that's what you want to do
And I'll lay your ship bare
I'll expose your secrets and reveal the truth
See how I leave with every piece of you
I will take a part of you with me as I leave
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
Don't think that I am weak and won't fight back
The scars of your love remind me of us
I can't forget the hurt that you caused
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
I can't help but think of what we could have been
The scars of your love they leave me breathless
The pain of our love is too much to handle
I can't help feeling
I can't control the emotions that I have
We could have had it all
We could have been great together
Rolling in the deep
Suffering deeply in love
You had my heart inside of your hand
You had my love and trust
And you played it
You hurt me
To the beat
You did it with joy and relish
Baby I have no story to be told
I'm not the one with a story to tell
But I've heard one of you
I know what you did and who you are
And I'm gonna make your head burn
I will make you regret your actions
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Think of me when you're at your lowest point
Making a home down there
I'll be there to remind you of your wrongdoing
As mine sure won't be shared
I won't share my pain and suffering with you
Throw your soul through every open door
Let your soul be free and explore opportunities
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Appreciate what you have and find happiness
Turned my sorrow into treasured gold
I turned my pain into something valuable
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow
You will receive what you deserve as a consequence of your actions
We could have had it all
We could have been great together
It all, it all it all,
Everything we wanted could have been ours
And you played
You hurt me
And you played
You hurt me
And you played
You hurt me
And you played it to the beat
You did it with joy and relish
You could have had it all
You could have had love and happiness
Rolling in the deep
Suffering deeply in love
You had my heart inside your hand
You had my love and trust
And you played
You hurt me
And you played
You hurt me
And you played
You hurt me
And you played it to the beat
You did it with joy and relish
