Black And Blue Lyrics

Black And Blue lyrics



Lights are shining all around this world

You want them all but what you want is this girl

You can stick those rules, they're just second best

They give you so much but you land up with less

They give you money when what you need is love

It makes you smile pretending it's all enough



See the world now it's bruised black and blue

You want it all but all I want is you

So give up the chance to be true



Dream for tomorrow, live for today

Someone, somewhere may just throw it away

It's been to the bottom, turned to the top

Lift up your eyes as if you were nearer to god

So get your bicycle and go earn your keep, there'll be

Nine million cycles here by this time next week



See the world now it's bruised black and blue

You want it all but all I want is you

So give up the chance to be true

We all wind up like we knew we'd do

Bruised black and blue



So many words are hard but true

We all wind up like we knew we'd do

Bruised black and blue

Bruised black and blue
