I Bruise Easily

Oh-ooh-ooh, yeah yeah

My skin is like a map

Of where my heart has been

And I can't hide the marks

But it's not a negative thing

So I let down my guard, drop my

Defenses down by my clothes

I'm learning to fall with no

Safety net to cushion the blow

I bruise easily, so be gentle

When you handle me

There's a mark you leave

Like a love heart carved

On a tree

I bruise easily

Can't scratch the surface

Without moving me

Underneath, I bruise easily

I bruise easily, yeah

I found your fingerprints

On a glass of wine

Do you know you're leaving them

All over this heart of mine too?

But if I never take this leap

Of faith, I'll never know

So I'm learning to fall with no

Safety net to cushion the blow

I bruise easily, so be gentle

When you handle me

There's a mark you leave

Like a love heart carved

On a tree

I bruise easily

Can't scratch the surface

Without moving me

Underneath, I bruise easily

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I bruise easily

Anyone who can touch you

Can hurt you or heal you

Anyone who can reach you

Can love you or leave you

So be gentle

(Ah-ah, so be gentle)

I bruise easily, so be gentle

When you handle me

There's a mark you leave

Like a love heart carved

On a tree

I bruise easily

Can't scratch the surface

Without moving me

Underneath, I bruise easily

(Yeah, I bruise easily)
