Remedy Lyrics
I remember all of the things that I thought I wanted to be
So desperate to find a way out of my world and finally breathe
Right before my eyes, I saw my heart, it came to life
This ain't easy, it's not meant to be, every story has its scars
[Chorus]
But when the pain cuts you deep
When the night keeps you from sleeping
Just look and you will see
That I will be your remedy
When the world seems so cruel
And your heart makes you feel like a fool
I promise you will see
That I will be, I will be your remedy
[Verse 2]
No river is too wide or too deep for me to swim to you
Come whatever, I'll be the shelter that won't let the rain come through
Your love, it is my truth, and I will always love you
Love you, oh
[Chorus]
When the pain cuts you deep
When the night keeps you from sleeping
Just look and you will see
That I will be your remedy
When the world seems so cruel
And your heart makes you feel like a fool
I promise you will see
That I will be, I will be your remedy
Oh, oh, when the pain cuts you deep
When the night keeps you from sleeping
Just look and you will see
That I will be, I will be
When the world seems so cruel
And your heart makes you feel like a fool
I promise you will see
That I will be, I will be
I will be your remedy
Mmm, mmm
About
“Remedy” was one of the early songs Adele worked on for 25, and she wrote it about her son, Angelo, as well as for other people she loves in her life. “I wrote it about my child,” she said to Rolling Stone. “But I sang it for everyone that I really love. When I wrote it, I got my confidence back in my writing ‘cause I believed in myself.”
The ballad, which Rolling Stone said “feels like Adele’s own version of Bob Dylan’s ‘Make You Feel My Love,’” was written by Adele in collaboration with Ryan Tedder for her third album 25. Tedder first confirmed his involvement in the album when he tweeted shortly after the commercial aired for the lead single “Hello.”
He previously worked with Adele on “Rumour Has It” and “Turning Tables”.
