- Dressed In Black Lyrics / with translationsI 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 have hit a love
Was all I let myself know, yeah
Yeah I had locked like heart
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 all my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Lose my tears and all my pride
Like you've broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my back
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
And you covered my heart in kisses
I was down for the count
Cause I was down, I was out
Oh oh
And I had lost it all
Cause I was scared I was doomed
Oh oh
And I took to the night
I'd given into the fight
Oh oh
And I slipped for the dawn
Yeah I felt like a dawn
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 all my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Lose my tears and all my pride
Like you've broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my back
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
And you covered my heart in kisses
I was hopeless
And more, getting war in the door from me
Yeah I was hiding
And you let that I didn't now I see
And to dwell for the wound
Do what they couldn't seem to
You set them free
Like a bottle of mist
And a child with a knife, with a 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 all my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Lose my tears and all my pride
Like you've broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my back
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
And you covered my heart in kisses
I didn't know who to trust
Oh oh
So I designed a shell
Kept me from heaven and hell
Oh oh
Yeah I have hit a love
Was all I let myself know, yeah
Yeah I had locked like heart
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 all my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Lose my tears and all my pride
Like you've broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my back
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
And you covered my heart in kisses
I was down for the count
Cause I was down, I was out
Oh oh
And I had lost it all
Cause I was scared I was doomed
Oh oh
And I took to the night
I'd given into the fight
Oh oh
And I slipped for the dawn
Yeah I felt like a dawn
You found me dressed in black
Hiding way up at the back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You started breaking all my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Lose my tears and all my pride
Like you've broken my heart, my spirit
And then you cross my back
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
