Dressed In Black

verse 1: I had given up I didn?t know who to trust So I designed a shell Kept me from heaven and hell And I had hit a low Was all I let myself know Yeah I had locked my heart 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 passed me by Missed my tears, ignored my cries Life had broken my heart, my spirit And then you crossed my path You quelled my fears, you made me laugh Then you covered my heart in kisses verse 2: I was down for the count i was down i was out And I had lost it all yes I was scared I was torn I took to the night I?d given in to the fight And I slipped further down I felt like I had drowned 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 passed me by Missed my tears, ignored my cries Life had broken my heart, my spirit And then you crossed my path You quelled my fears, you made me laugh Then you covered my heart in kisses Bridge: 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 passed me by Missed my tears, ignored my cries Life had broken my heart, my spirit And then you crossed my path You quelled my fears, you made me laugh Then you covered my heart in kisses
