Bleeding Love

The lyrics to this song move me, and have been on my mind a lot lately. I happened to catch an episode of "So You Think You Can Dance" and saw this performance. I loved this interpretation of the song.


Closed off from love


I didn't need the pain


Once or twice was enough


And it was all in vain


Time starts to pass


Before you know it you're frozen



But something happened


For the very first time with you


My heart melts into the ground


Found something true


And everyone's looking round


Thinking I'm going crazy



But I don't care what they say


I'm in love with you


They try to pull me away


But they don't know the truth


My heart's crippled by the vein


That I keep on closing


You cut me open and I


Keep bleeding



Keep, keep bleeding love


I keep bleeding


I keep, keep bleeding love


Keep bleeding


Keep, keep bleeding love


You cut me open



Trying hard not to hear


But they talk so loud


Their piercing sounds fill my ears


Try to fill me with doubt


Yet I know that the goal


Is to keep me from falling


But nothing's greater


Than the rush that comes with your embrace


And in this world of loneliness I see your face


Yet everyone around me


Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe


But I don't care what they say


I'm in love with you


They try to pull me away


But they don't know the truth


My heart's crippled by the vein


That I keep on closing


You cut me open
