Dressed In Black

Lyrics

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, uh
 And I had hit a low
 Was all I let myself know, yeah
 Yeah, I had locked my heart
 I was imprisoned by dark (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
 I was down for the count
 I was down, I was out
 ♪
 And I had lost it all
 'Cause I was scared, I was torn, oh, oh
 And I took to the night
 I'd given in to the fight, oh, oh, uh
 And I slipped further down
 I felt like I had drowned (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
 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 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
