Colbie Caillat - Bullet Proof Vest lyrics

rate me

VERSE 1 ]

What are you trying to hide?

You won't let me inside.

The fear's only in your mind.

I can see it in your eyes.

[ BRIDGE ]

And I try to get through to you,

But I don't know what to do.

You're making it hard

To get to your heart.

And it seems these days,

That everybody wears

A bullet proof vest.

[ CHORUS ]

If love is a blank dart

Shot from a heart-shaped gun,

It only hurts you

When you try to turn and run.

When will you see

That you don't need

A bullet proof vest?

[ VERSE 2 ]

Please take it off for me.

I won't shoot,

I'll let you breathe

I wanna feel you feeling me.

Oh, baby, love?

Don't bleed?

[ BRIDGE ]

And I try to get through to you.

I don't know what to do.

You're making it hard

To get to your heart.

And it seems these days,

That everybody wears

A bullet proof vest.

[ CHORUS ]

If love is a blank dart,

Shot from a heart-shaped gun,

It only hurts you

When you try to turn and run.

When will you see that you don't need

A bullet proof vest?

(Repeat Chorus)
