Lyrics

He confides in me, he needs to
He doesn't feel the need to lie
And my suspicions always proved me right
Did I deserve it? Tell me, was it worth it?

I smelled the cinnamon, how could I depend?
Expect me to defend myself when you ain't there
Now his hands are in my hair, his whispers in my head
That's it, I'm broken

Our love is tainted by the tides
Both sides, both sides of the moon
And the moon is tainted by the tide, mm
Both sides, both sides, both sides
And the moon is a slave to the tides
Both sides, both sides, both sides

Yeah, I wonder how you leave
When I know there's no place to go
And I wonder how you still move me
To a place where I have no control

Here we go again, I'm pacing back with him
Going back and forth but this pain is in my chest
I'm braving it again, thinking, "How does this make sense?"
I'm hoping they're just friends

Our love is tainted by the tides
Both sides, both sides of the moon
And the moon is tainted by the tide
Both sides, both sides, both sides
And the moon is a slave to the tides
Both sides, both sides, both sides

Yeah, I wonder how you leave
When I know there's no place to go
Yeah, I wonder how you still move me, hey
To a place where I have no control
Both sides, both sides
Both sides, both sides

the instruments: majestic

I remember saying I'd play this song when things got better. Here I am 2 years later, crying tears of joy, because I ran from my abusive family and gave my life to Jesus, it's nowhere near perfect but finally I am free.

[MrRalph]

Them late nights on YouTube when I can’t find sleep, yet I find such great music in exchange 😵‍💫

For those wondering.The gravitational pull of the moon causes highs and lows in the ocean. Also known as tides. "Our love is tainted by the tides" is trying to say that their love is damaged from the ups and downs. "Both sides of the moon" represents both her and her partner having fault in these tides. The rest is pretty self explained about a toxic relationship.

"and the moon is a slave to the tides" oh my god the depth

[DarkKidu]

[Verse 1]
He confides in me he needs to
He doesn't feel the need to lie
And my suspicions always proved me right
Did I deserve it
Tell me was it worth it

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I smell this in a man
How could I depend?
Expect me to defend myself when you ain't there
Now his hand are in my hair
His whispers in my head
That's it I'm broken

[Chorus]
Our love is tainted by the tides
Both sides, both sides of the moon
And the moon is tainted by the tide
Both sides, both sides, both sides
And the moon is a slave to the tides
Both sides, both sides, both sides

[Verse 2]
Yeah, I wonder how you leave
When I know there's no place to go
And I wonder how you still move me
To a place where I have no control


[Pre-Chorus 2]
Here we go again
I'm pacing back to him
Going back and forth
But this pain is in my chest
I'm braving it again
Thinking how does this make sense
I'm hoping they're just friends

[Chorus]
Our love is tainted by the tides
Both sides, both sides of the moon
And the moon is tainted by the tide
Both sides, both sides, both sides
And the moon is a slave to the tides
Both sides, both sides, both sides

[Outro]
Yeah, I wonder how you leave
When I know there's no place to go
And I wonder how you still move me
To a place where I have no control

[ThamiWorld]

4 years late but I'm glad I found this piece of gold

[mttlsa]

I can't even tell how much it makes me joyful to see there's still people who make this kind of MUSIC today. Because I love this music. It resonates with my soul and heals my body.

[tinambalienhle]

She makes toxic relationships sound so smooth ❤️

[kittyvader]

I'm in love. She makes me speechless. What a talent! I lost Amy, but I've found Celeste.

[alpha-alpha-alpha]

How many of us come back to listen to it again and again?
She moves my soul. And stirs my heart.

[WONDERfulPhases]

The fact that this is live just screams talent ✨ ✨✨

[dxx]

It's insane how much depth is in her voice! There's a lot of good singers out there, but few can sing like this.

[mrfirebladecc]

sultry, smooth vocals with a jazz feel ..simply sublime .. love it

[richardmartins]

incredible perception about the moon having this bright and beautiful side that we see and fall in love with and hope it's always be there for us, and there's another one, darker side that we don't see and it's going to end up affect us, I believe we won't notice until it's too late, when it's not the side of the moon that we know is there in the sky

[jacquianderson]

I never thought I'd find a voice I loved as much as Amy's - or more. Her tone is silky and natural and mind-blowing.

[jenniferparker]

Saw this young lady on BBC breakfast this morning. Went straight to YouTube. All I can say is Wow. At 59 years old I get these lyrics and the soul in Celestes voice. Amy Winehouse lived her lyrics and experienced mental illness and loving someone who totally engulfed her world even though it was the wrong sort of love. Celeste said she has written lyrics after listening to other peoples stories. May you always find your lyrics through others and never through your own pain or mental health Celeste. Keep your feet on the ground and fly high with your voice. This lady is going to be a Star⭐

[KingGuttaHermes]

Haven’t been moved by a song of this caliber in a long time... The emotion you captured on this is second to none. Keep doing what you do, exactly how you’re doing it. Peace & much love

[jasmineloera]

Love when I find a song like this. These are true treasures! The lyrics, her voice, everything, so hauntingly beautiful.

[vetvikedra]
