[Verse 1]
This is the start of something beautiful
This is the start of something new
You are the one who'd make me lose it all
You are the start of something new, ooh

[Hook 1]
And I'll throw it all away
Watch you fall into my arms again
And I'll throw it all away
Watch you fall, now

[Bridge 1]
You are the earth that I will stand upon
You are the words that I will sing

[Hook 2]
And I've thrown it all away
And watched you fall into his arms again
And I've thrown it all away
And watched you fall, now

[Bridge 2]
And take me back
Take me home
Watch me fall, down to earth
Take me back, for

[Outro]
This is start of something beautiful
You are the start of something new

Ed Sheeran is a singer/songwriter who was born in Halifax, England but was raised in Suffolk, England. He’s known for his energetic live shows, which involve him using a loop pedal and sometimes throwing some raps in for good measure.

Ed’s success story began with him playing music in older people’s homes. He first was picked up by a record producer when busking in the USA. He performed nearly a thousand gigs and street performances before getting the recognition he deserved. Unsigned projects such as Loose Change and Songs I Wrote with Amy relied on the production of long-term collaborator Jake Gosling and signaled the start of their hugely successful musical relationship. Soon he’d made countless industry friends.

Teaming up with some of the biggest names in UK grime – Wiley, Ghetts, Jme and more – he released the No. 5 Collaborations Project in January 2011, and it reached number 46 on the UK Singles Chart. One of the songs, “Little Lady” (feat. Mikill Pane), was a fan favourite, so Ed made a more radio-friendly solo version entitled “The A Team” and the rest is history. The song now has over a million sales in the UK and two million in the US.
