Bruises Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Counting days, counting days
Since my love up and got lost on me
'Cause every breath that I’ve been taking
Since you left feels like a waste on me
I've been holding on to hope
That you'll come back when you have found some peace
’Cause every word that I've heard spoken
Since you left feels like a hollow street

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been told, I've been told to keep you off my mind
But I hope I never lose the bruises that you left behind
Oh my lord, oh my lord, I need you by my side

[Chorus]
There must be something in the water
'Cause every day, it's getting colder
And if only I could hold you
You'd keep my head from going under

[Verse 2]
Maybe I, maybe I'm just being blinded
By the brighter side
Of what we had because it’s over
Yeah, there must be something in the tide
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve been told, I've been told to get you off my mind
But I hope I never lose the bruises that you left behind
Oh my lord, oh my lord, I need you by my side

[Chorus]
There must be something in the water
’Cause every day, it's getting colder
Oh, if only I could hold you
You'd keep my head from going under

[Bridge]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
It's your love I’m lost in
It's your love I'm lost in
Your love I'm lost in
And I'm tired of being so exhausted
It's your love I'm lost in
It's your love I'm lost in
Your love I'm lost in
Even though I'm nothing to you now
Even though I'm nothing to you now
[Chorus]
There must be something in the water
'Cause every day, it's getting colder
And if only I could hold you
You'd keep my head from going under
There must be something in the water
'Cause every day, it's getting colder
And if only I could hold you
You'd keep my head from going under, oh-oh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
