Lyrics

Bastille — Good Lesson

Oh you were always stronger than I was

Oh you were always stronger than I was

Oh Delilah

On a summer night, you came for me

My eyes were wide shut, opened my mind

Said you loved me

In the heat of it, I replied

"Drunk lust is blind, love, can't choose your type"

Dylan is teaming up with Dan Smith from Bastille for the first taste of her new era, 'Liar Liar': "Oh god, what if people hate it?"

She's the pop megastar in waiting that's kinda a rockstar too, and she's kicking off a brand new era with a bit of a hand from Bastille's Dan Smith - but what comes next from Dylan is apparently going to surprise us all.
