I had given up
I didn’t know who to trust
Oh oh
So I designed a shell
Kept me from heaven and hell
Oh oh
Yeah, I had hit a low
Was all I let myself know, yeah
Yeah, I had locked life out
I was imprisoned by dark

You found me dressed in black
hiding way up at the back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life'd passed me by
Missed my tears, ignored my pride
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
Then you covered my heart in kisses

I was down for the count
Yes, I was down, I was out
Oh oh
And I had lost it all
Yes, I was scared I was torn
And I took to the night
I'd given into the fight
Oh oh
And I slipped further down
Yeah I felt like I am drowned

You found me dressed in black
hiding way up at the back
Life had build up my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you cover my heart in kisses
I thought life'd pass me by
Missed my tears, ignore my pride
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
Then you covered my heart in kisses

I was hopeless and broken
You opened the door for me
Yeah I was hiding
And you let the light in and now I see
That you do for the wounded
What they couldn’t seem to
You set them free
Like a butterfly kissing a child with an eye for the minor key

You found me dressed in black
hiding way up at the back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life'd passed me by
Missed my tears, ignored my pride
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
Then you covered my heart in your kisses
Ah...
You covered my heart in kisses
