Biography:
Jorja Smith is an English singer from Walsall, UK. Smith impressed many and earned attention with her hip-hop and R&B-inspired debut single "Blue Lights" and has taken the rest of the year to deliver songs that fuse soul, blues, and even classical. She spent much of 2016 getting people very excited about her effortless, informed, and deeply soulful pop with a trio of eclectic singles. Her first EP Project 11 arrives so perfectly formed it almost feels like showing off. Many songs mark Smith out as her hero Amy Winehouse’s truest successor.

[Verse 1]
Gm A
When I left I thought I would be stronger
Dm
But in fact, it took away my energy
Gm A
Hard to tell you that I could not really see
Dm
Beyond the gates of this purgatory
Gm A
I am so tainted now, I cannot wash you off
Dm
The memories still don't seem to fade
Gm A
When I left, did you even wash your tears?
Bb A
'Cause mine have been dryin' for days
[Chorus]
Gm A
Somethin' in the way
Dm
Why am I cryin' for you, babe?
Gm A
Can't stand the rain
Dm
Time to move on anyway
[Post-Chorus]
Gm A
Don't ask me why
Dm
It's done
Gm A
So long, goodbye
Dm
I'm gone
[Refrain]
Gm A
'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
Dm
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Gm A
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
Dm
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
[Verse 2]
Gm A
If I kept a hold a little longer
Dm
I would never think I'd ever get away
Gm A
Don't want to say I tried to keep ya
Dm
Say love is blind, I couldn't see you change, no
Gm A
Don't wanna find myself back in that place
Dm
I have wasted all my tears on fools
Gm A
There was no help for me, no savin' grace
Dm
I had been tryin' for days
[Chorus]
Gm A
There was somethin' in the way
Dm
Why am I cryin' for you, babe?
Gm A
No I can't stand the rain
Dm
Time to move on anyway
[Post-Chorus]
Gm A
Don't ask me why
Dm
It's done
Gm A
So long, goodbye
Dm
I'm gone
[Refrain]
Gm A
'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
Dm
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Gm A
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
Dm
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Gm A
Well there was somethin' in the way
Dm
Why am I cryin' for you, babe?
Gm A
I can't stand the rain
Dm
Time to move on anyway
[Refrain]
Gm A
'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
Dm
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Gm A
Even the sun doesn't seem to last

It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
Even the sun in the summer doesn't seem to last
