Natasha Bedingfield - I Bruise Easily (Album Edit) lyrics

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 I found your fingerprints On a gla** 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 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 So be gentle So be gentle So be gentle So be gentle Oh oh oh oh oh 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 I bruise easily (Anyone who) So be gentle (Can touch you) When you handle me (Can hurt you) There's a mark (Or heal you) You leave (Anyone who) Like a love heart (Can reach you) Carved on a tree (Can love you) (Or leave you) I bruise easily Can't scratch the surface Without moving me Underneath I bruise easily I bruise easily Yeah yeah yeah I bruise easily Oh yeah oh I bruise easily
