A Little of You Lyrics

There used to be a time
I wore my heart upon my sleeve
There used to be a time
I'd show my gentle side to anyone
Through these years of wandering
I know I've been deceived
Through these years of wandering...

And everytime you try to hurt me
You know you'll only hurt yourself
And everytime you try to hurt me
I know you'll be the one to suffer
When you think you're hurting someone

A little of you - a little of me -
A little of you -
Is hurting someone -

Don't tell me I'm the only one
'Cause I don't need that space
Don't ask for love
I'll throw it back in your face
All of these promises
Were only made to break
All of these promises...
A little of you - a little of me -
A little of you -
Is hurting someone -

How to Format Lyrics:

  • 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 [?]
