lyrics

Thin skin

Thin skin 
Delicate to touch 
Thin skin
I feel_____too much 

Some people are born with a sensitive soul 
Everyday living, soon takes its toll 
In the game of love they never win
Some people are born with delicate skin 

Without protection of beautiful flesh
A word is a wound, open and fresh 
A stranger can cut with a quip to the bone 
It's safer to hide in a world of your own 

So if you brush me 
You'll probably bruise me 
But you'll never lose me 
I am loyal to the core 

Reach out and hold me
But please don't squeeze me 
Your kiss could unfreeze me
I will melt to the floor 

Thin skin 
Delicate to touch 
Thin skin
I feel_____

A well without water can only run dry
A heart with no music will wither and die
Even the moon needs sunlight to shine
I burn in the shade, will love ever be mine?

My senses are heightened, each sight and each taste 
The depth of my love, it all goes to waste 
For people get frightened when you need their care 
When I open my arms there is no___body___there 

Sometimes I wonder 
Can anyone see me?
Love me and free me 
To my promised-land

I would beg them to come now
To reach out and take me
To try not to break me
Do their best to withstand

My thin skin 
Heavenly to touch 
Thin skin
I feel_____

My thin skin 
Miracle to touch 
Thin skin
I feel_____

Maybe one day I'll find him 
Someone won't rush me 
A man who won't crush me 
Just by holding my hand 
Someone who'll understand
