Kelis – Acapella Lyrics

R&B

I was walking, was living
My melody was acapella
There's a beat I was missing
No tune, or a scale, I could play

The sound in the distance
No orchestra playing together
Like a boat out to sea

The silence was too deafening!
So come and revive me
I can't feel my heartbeat

Just me surviving alone
()
Before you
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony's

The only song to sing
Before you
My whole life was acapella!

Now a symphony's

The only song to sing
Everything was the same
One color was just like the others
An assembly routine
My memories were all black and white
Till I stopped over-thinking
Decided to draw back the curtains
And I cleared all the cobwebs
And began to let in the light
So come and revive me
I can't feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone
()
Before you
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
Before you
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
(Bridge – 3X)
You are the drum in my heart beat
Bass and guitar lead
Stuck on the notes you play
My heart that you play on
Grab like a crayon
I can't walk away
(– 2X)
Before you
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
Before you
My whole life was acapella!
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing

    This is one song I could listen to over and over. I love every beat. It sounds as if this was acapella and David Guetta came and added his phenomenal beats to create this extraordinary song.
