lyrics

Bruises Mandalyn May 2011

There are bruises on my heart, taking their sweet time to heal
‘cause I fall in love so hard, I fall fast enough to feel
the muscle breaking apart
the fire burning out of the spark within me

There are bruises on my shins, cause I fell head over heels
love for me comes like the wind, bowls me over and I
cannot resist, though I’ve tried,
I fail in this every time every time

and I am learning to be still, to let good things come to me
but oh it’s taking all my will... and in the end I’m just a bird
chasing the bee with her song
hoping for honey was I wrong, was I

There are bruises on my heart, taking their sweet time to heal
‘cause I loved you from the start, but you don’t feel the way I feel
don’t even see the way I feel
or if you do... baby, it doesn’t matter to you.
