Clean Bandit & Louisa Johnson - 'Tears' (Live At The Summertime Ball 2017)

10 June 2017, 19:47

Teaming up on stage with Louisa Johnson, Clean Bandit’s live version of ‘Tears’ at the #CapitalSTB was absolute perfection!

They’ve got a number of platinum selling singles in their repertoire and Clean Bandit must love seeing the crowd’s excited reactions every single time they perform one, especially when it’s in front of 80,000 people at Wembley Stadium!

‘Tears’ is the first time that Clean Bandit have teamed up with a former X Factor winner and Louisa Johnson was the perfect vocalist for this track. Louisa actually performed the song alongside fellow #CapitalSTB artists 5 After Midnight at the X Factor finals in 2016.

This live version was an absolute gem – Louisa’s always on point vocals combined with Clean Bandit’s vibrant live performance makes for one amazing spectacle and by the looks of people’s faces inside Wembley, they love it as much as we did!

Weren’t lucky enough to attend the ball? Never fear - you can catch up with Clean Bandit’s awesome set via the video above. You don’t wanna miss this one!

Clean Bandit & Louisa Johnson ‘Tears’ Lyrics

I tried hard to make you want me
But we're not supposed to be
And the truth will always haunt me
Even though it set me free
And my tears flow like the ocean
As they floated in the breeze
They were falling in slow motion
And they brought me to my knees

You're haunting me, taunting me all in my brain
Turn off the light and now all that remains
Fills me with doubt
And I'm shouting your name out loud
Why do you wanna put me through the pain?
I get the feeling I'll never escape
I can't hide away from the shame of you

Tears on the ground, tears on my pillow
You won't bring me down
And I'll get over you
These tears will get me through
And I'll get over you

I'll, I'll, I'll get over you
I'll, I'll
I'll, I'll, I'll get over you
I'll, I'll, I'll get over you

When did you lose your emotion?
When did you become so cruel?
And if you want to cut me open
Says a thousands words 'bout you
And in time I know you'll leave me
Like a distant memory
I know love can be so easy
If I start by loving me, oh

You're haunting me, taunting me all in my brain
Turn off the light and now all that remains
Fills me with doubt
And I'm shouting your name out loud
Why do you wanna put me through the pain?
I get the feeling I'll never escape
I can't hide away from the shame of you

Tears on the ground, tears on my pillow
You won't bring me down

I'll get over you
I'll get over you
I'll get over you
I'll get over you

Tears on the ground, rain at my window
The pain washes out
And I'll get over you
These tears will get me through
And I'll get over you

I'll get over you
I'll, I'll, I'll get over you
I'll, I'll
I'll get over you
I don't need you to call me tonight
(I'll get over you)
I don't need you to see me if I'm alright
(I'll get over you)
You left me, so leave me, I'm fine
I'll be here getting on with my life

Tears on the ground, tears on my pillow
You won't bring me down
I'll get over you
Rain at my window, the pain washes out
I'll get over you, I'll get over you
Tears on the ground
I'll get over you
Rain at my window
The pain washes out
And I'll get over you
Oh yeah, I'll get over you

I'll get over...
I'll get over you
