Fragile
Cooper & Gatlin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kiss me like you mean it
I'm a flower in the cold
Shriveled in the darkness, where's the light to help me grow?
So quietly, I slip into the depths of you until it turns me blue
Fragile are my lips, delicate but true
Who would kiss a girl with fragile lips?
Who would kiss a girl with fragile lips?
Fall apart and break from the slightest touch
Stained upon my skin, the taste of you I love
And selfishly I yearn, for you dance around my head until it turns me blue
Fragile are my lips, delicate but true
Who would kiss a girl with fragile lips?




Who would kiss a girl with fragile lips?
Who would kiss a girl with fragile lips?
