“I don’t make music for eyes. I make music for ears.”

After the successes of 19 and 21, Adele is back with her third studio album, 25. In less than one week, the album has made history selling over 3 million copies in the US alone. It has also broken records in the UK and Canada, surpassing Celine Dion, Oasis, NSync and others.

Once again, 25 is loaded with the kinds of power ballads that Adele songs are known for. Singles like “Hello” and “Send My Love (To Your New Lover)”pick up right where others like “Someone like you”, “One and only” and “Make you feel my love” left off.

Below, we’ve collected the best quotes from songs on all three albums, to celebrate the lines and lyrics that have become so memorable.

Adele Quotes: The Best Lyrics and Lines from 19, 21 and 25

Album: “25” (2015)

1. Hello – Adele

Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I’ve tried
To tell you I’m sorry for breaking your heart
But it don’t matter it clearly doesn’t tear you apart anymore

2. Send My Love (To Your New Lover) – Adele

Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain’t kids no more

3. I Miss You – Adele

Treat me soft but touch me cruel
I want to teach you things you never knew

4. When We Were Young – Adele

‘Cause I’ve been by myself all night long
Hoping you’re someone I used to know

5. Remedy – Adele

Right before my eyes I saw my heart it came to life
This ain’t easy, it’s not meant to be
Every story has its scars

6. Water Under The Bridge – Adele

And if I’m not the one for you
You’ve gotta stop holding me the way you do
Why if I’m not the one for you?
Why have we been through what we have been through

7. River Lea – Adele

I should probably tell you now before it’s way too late
That I never meant to hurt you or lie straight to your face
Consider this my apology
I know it’s years in advance
But I’d rather say it now in case I never get the chance

 

8. Love In The Dark – Adele

Please don’t fall apart
I can’t face your breaking heart
I’m trying to be brave
Stop asking me to stay

9. Million Years Ago – Adele

Sometimes I just feel it’s only me
Who can’t stand the reflection that they see
I wish I could live a little more
Look up to the sky, not just the floor

 

10. All I Ask – Adele

No one knows me like you do
And since you’re the only one that matters
Tell me who do I run to?

11. Sweetest Devotion – Adele

When you wonder if I’m gonna lose my way home
Just remember, that come whatever
I’ll be yours all alone

Deluxe Edition:

12. Can’t Let Go – Adele

Did you find the note that I wrote?
I hid it in the seam of your coat
It was hard to write, I had a lump in my throat
Do you even know that I can’t let go

13. Lay Me Down – Adele

The words don’t come out right when you’re right in front of me
Help me baby, won’t you turn off the lights

14. Why Do You Love Me – Adele

How do you keep me coming back for more
After all we’ve been through
I can’t decide if I should run and hide

They keep me thinking that we almost had it all

Under your thumb I can’t breathe

That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we’re already over
I can’t help myself from looking for you.

Wake me up, wake me up when all is done
I won’t rise until this battle’s won
My dignity’s become undone

From all my tears?
It’s gonna be an empty road
Without me right here.

The heavens cried,
I know I left you speechless,

At the first sight of you crawling back to me

Four cold walls against my will
At least I know he’s lying still
Four cold walls without parole
Lord have mercy on my soul

I wish I could lay down beside you
When the day is done
And wake up to your face against the morning sun

Another shot of whiskey, can’t stop looking at the door.
Wishing you’d come sweeping in the way you did before.
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind.
For me it happens all the time.

And fly around in circles

You drift into my head
And turn me into a crumbling fool.

I think you’re giving out way too much in fact

I looked up and inside down and outside only to find
A double taking punching hard and laughing at my smile
I get closer you obviously prefer her

Missing out the cracks in the pavement

With the empty ideas of the ones we’d made

And it’s teasing me
So scratch my itch and beat my drum
So i can start to begin what’s begun

That you and I are old
And it’s been that way too long
Take it as it comes, and be thankful when it’s done
