Bareilles, Sara - Gravity Lyrics






Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do,
Still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone.

Hold me without touch.
Keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much
Than to drown in your love and not feel your rain.

Set me free,
Leave me be.
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be,
But you're on to me and all over me.

You loved me 'cause I'm fragile
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while,
And all my fragile strength is gone.

Set me free,
Leave me be.
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be,
But you're on to me and all over me.

I live here on my knees
As I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need here on the ground.

But you're neither friend nor foe
Though I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down.

Keeping me down.
You're on to me, on to me and all over.

Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.

    'Something always brings me back to you
    It never takes too long
    No matter what I say or do
    I'll still feel you here 'till the moment I'm gone
    You hold me without touch

    I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love
    And not feel your reign
    Set me free, leave me be
    I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity
    Here I am, and I stand
    So tall, just the way I'm supposed to be
    But you're on to me and all over me
    Oh, you loved me 'cause I'm fragile
    When I thought that I was strong
    But you touch me for a little while
    And all my fragile strength is gone
    Set me free, leave me be
    I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity

    You're keeping me down, eh ooh
    You're on to me, on to me, and all over

    This is a great song if you have a parent/relative with BPD and you’re struggling with it...

  32. S.... A....

    I can’t stop listening to this! Gorgeous, beautiful, mesmerizing!!!
    I must be living under a rock since I just heard of this song in 2020!!

  33. P.... C....

    This song so amazing...

  34. K.... J....

    Community anyone?

  35. B.... T....

    This song is amazing. You can tell she sings it and means it from the bottom of her heart

  36. D.... H....

    I always get hurted everytime i listen to this song... this song accompanied me to get throught some shit back then

  37. n.... J....

    Damn, this always reminds me of my first love. It's probably been around 15 years since but it was someone special to me but not for me.

  38. R.... ....

    I am so fucking hungry and it’s 3 AM :(

  39. C.... N....

    I always think that Sara and "Gravity" are both underrated. And then I see nearly 30Mil views, and realize that the only underrating is going on in the "commercial/corporate music world". But, here in the real world, with real people, thinking of real life.....Sara is REALLY GREAT for the soul for all of us who appreciate her. Does anything else matter, really?

    C.... N....

    Wow Chris, so funny that I stumbled across this song and commentary this morning. You are spot on with you comment about the corporate/ commercial world. I'm a 57 year old dad.......I just had this discussion with my teenage kids last night!
    In a nutshell.......... be who you are, make your own choices, love what you love........ trust you ! The TV, radio, social media etc. are telling you what to like and who is good or bad. This transcends the music world. listen to you. good for you.

  40. d.... t....

    Sering denger tapi ga tau judul lagu ini dan ga tau jg siapa penyanyinya, suka banget ❤❤❤padahal lagu Sara yg "She Used to be mine" hapal matiii.. 😁 ternyata lagunya Sara juga, pantes suka, Sara deserved Love and World ! ❤

  41. j.... ....

  44. S.... E....

    Still listening to this beautiful work of art in 2020...Mark my words, this will be my wedding song 😤

  45. C.... C....

    I'm Alamater Cynthia Corcoran as Sara I haven't preformed since this film. So they owe me 58 percent of every copy performance with my tape.

  46. B.... G....

    I became a fan of Sara because of the show So you think you can dance. I remember liking the choreography first then the song. It's so beautiful and sad at the same time.

  47. A.... J....

    Something always brings me back to you, Sara.

  58. P.... C....

    If only I can describe what this song means to me. To put a number on the amount of tears I cried while listening to Sara's voice is impossible. This song was on my side all throughout my first heartache. I came across her music by mistake but it helped me immensely. It put words to all those feelings I had. Many many years later, I hear this song and it's just a reminder of how far i came from that tragic moment in my life. This song is soo many emotions. Thank you Sara for this greatness :)

  59. F.... A....

    I love Sara Bareilles and had never hear this song until a group of my friends went to karaoke and she sang this song. I fell in love with it instantly.

  90. T.... H....

    Not that anyone cares but i heard Ian Harding sing this somg in Lucy’s video and now im here so yeah

  91. C.... P....

    To me this song is about an addiction rather than a breakup. The drug/action becomes your friend and provides you comfort. "I've never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love and not feel your rain" speaks volumes to me on wanting the peaceful, bliss state that the addiction gives you, without having the negatives that you undeniably know it brings to your life. Once touched by this addiction you realize you're powerless to it - "you touched me for a little while, all my fragile strength is gone". Peace and love to everyone - you control your mind, you control your future, you control your own happiness. Be strong.
