Bleeding Love
Leona Lewis丽安娜刘易斯 Lyrics

Closed off from love, I didn't need the pain
I was avoiding love because I thought it would bring me pain

Once or twice was enough, but it was all in vain
I had been hurt by love in the past and didn't want to go through it again

Time starts to pass, before you know it, you're frozen
I had been closed off from love for so long that I had become frozen and unable to feel anything

But something happened, for the very first time with you
I met someone who made me feel differently about love for the first time

My heart melts into the ground, found something true
I fell in love with this person and felt like I had finally found something real and true

And everyone's looking round, thinking I'm going crazy
People around me thought I was crazy for falling in love after being closed off for so long

But I don't care what they say
I didn't care what people thought of my love because it felt real to me

I'm in love with you
I was in love with the person who had opened me up to love again

They try to pull me away, but they don't know the truth
People tried to pull me away from this person, but they didn't understand the depth of my love

My heart's crippled by the vein, that I keep on closing
My fear of getting hurt was still present and preventing me from fully opening up

You cut me open and I
This person had opened me up emotionally and made me vulnerable

Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
I continued to feel deeply in love, even if it meant feeling pain at times

Trying hard not to hear, but they talk so loud
I tried to ignore the judgments of others, but they were hard to ignore

Their piercing sounds fill my ears, try to fill me with doubt
Their judgments made me doubt my love for this person

Yet I know that the goal, is to keep me from falling
I realized that people were trying to protect me from getting hurt, but I still wanted to take the risk

But nothings greater, than the rush that comes with your embrace
The feeling of being with this person was greater than any fear or doubt I had

And in this world of loneliness, I see your face
This person was a source of light and love in an otherwise lonely world

And it's draining all of me
My love for this person was taking a toll on me emotionally

Oh they find it hard to believe
People found it hard to believe that I could love someone so deeply after being closed off for so long

I'll be wearing these scars, for everyone to see
My love for this person would leave emotional scars that would be visible to others

Oh, you cut me open and I
This person had opened me up emotionally and vulnerably

Keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding love
I continued to love this person deeply, even if it meant feeling pain at times
