About

When ’21’ was released I was a teenager with no idea who I was or where I fit in.

I love ‘Turning Tables’ most of all because of its empowering lyrics – about picking yourself up and taking back control.

They immediately draw you into a situation and feeling we’ve all experienced and can relate, then they show you the strength and resolve to put an end to it, once and for all.

I’ve called this version a tribute because it’s a testament to a wonderful piece of songwriting.

It’s not a cover that seeks to be better somehow or radically changed from the original, it’s simply a reimagining 10 years on – still relevant, still resilient, still resonant.

Lyrics:

Turning Tables

Close enough to start a war
All that I have is on the floor
God only knows what we're fighting for
All that I say, you always say more

I can't keep up with your turning tables
Under your thumb I can't breathe

So, I won't let you close enough to hurt me
No, I won't rescue you to just desert me
I can't give you what you think you gave me
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables
To turning tables

Under haunted skies I see you, ooh-ooh
Where love is lost your ghost is found
I braved a hundred storms to leave you
As hard as you try, no I will never be knocked down

I can't keep up with your turning tables
Under your thumb I can't breathe

So, I won't let you close enough to hurt me
No, I won't rescue you to just desert me
I can't give you what you think you gave
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables
Turning tables

Next time I'll be braver
I'll be my own saviour
When the thunder calls for me
Next time I'll be braver
I'll be my own saviour
Standing on my own two feet

I won't let you close enough to hurt me
No, I won't rescue you to just desert me
I can't give you what you think you gave me
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables
To turning tables
Turning tables, yeah
Oh, no, no
