Dressed In Black

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 broken 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
