Sam Smith Is Here To Break Our Hearts With 'Too Good At Goodbyes'
The 'Stay With Me' singer's new single does not disappoint...
Sam Smith is back!
After two years of silence, the 'Lay Me Down' crooner returns with a heart-wrenching ballad that stays true to his winning formula, the brilliant 'Too Good At Goodbyes'.
"Every time you hurt me, the less that I cry / And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry," he sings on the soulful new track.
But always hit the floor
I've spent a lifetime running
And I always get away
But with you I'm feeling something
That makes me want to stay
I'm prepared for this
I never shoot to miss
But I feel like a storm is coming
If I'm gonna make it through the day
Then there's no more use in running
This is something I gotta face
If I risk it all
Could you break my fall?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you're not here I'm suffocating
I want to feel love, run through my blood
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
For you I have to risk it all
Cause the writing's on the wall
A million shards of glass
That haunt me from my past
As the stars begin to gather
And the light begins to fade
When all hope begins to shatter
Know that I won't be afraid
If I risk it all
Could you break my fall?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you're not here I'm suffocating
I want to feel love, run through my blood
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
For you I have to risk it all
Cause the writing's on the wall
The writing's on the wall
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you're not here I'm suffocating
I want to feel love, run through my blood
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you're not here I'm suffocating
I want to feel love, run through my blood
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
For you I have to risk it all
Cause the writing's on the wall
'Too Good At Goodbyes' is produced by Sam's longtime collaborator Jimmy Napes and the legendary hitmakers StarGate, who were behind songs like 'Irreplaceable' and 'Diamonds'.
It's the first single to be released from his upcoming sophomore album, which is rumoured to be titled TPH-50HR, an ode to his childhood home.
In an interview on Beats 1, Smith revealed the album will be released before Christmas and there will be a deluxe edition with four bonus tracks for his die-hard fans.

WATCH SAM SMITH'S 'I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE' BELOW
For better or for worse
I can't believe you let me down
But the proof is in the way it hurts
For months on end I've had my doubts
Denying every tear
I wish this would be over now
But I know that I still need you here
You say I'm crazy
'Cause you don't think I know what you've done
But when you call me "Baby"
I know I'm not the only one
You've been so unavailable
Now sadly I know why
Your heart is unobtainable
Even though Lord knows you kept mine
You say I'm crazy
'Cause you don't think I know what you've done
But when you call me "Baby"
I know I'm not the only one
I have loved you for many years
Maybe I am just not enough
You've made me realize my deepest fear
By lying and tearing us up
You say I'm crazy
'Cause you don't think I know what you've done
But when you call me "Baby"
I know I'm not the only one
You say I'm crazy
'Cause you don't think I know what you've done
But when you call me "Baby"
I know I'm not the only one
I know I'm not the only one
I know I'm not the only one
And I know, and I know, and I know
And I know, and I know, and I know, know
I know I'm not the only one
