Bruises - Days Like These

I tried to do handstands for you

I tried to do headstands for you

Every time I fell on you, yeah, every time I fell

I tried to do handstands for you

But every time I fell for you

I’m permanently black and blue, permanently blue for you

I tried to do handstands for you

I tried to do headstands for you

Every time I fell on you, yeah, every time I fell

I tried to do handstands for you

But every time I fell for you

I’m permanently black and blue, permanently blue

For you-ooh

For you-ooh

So black and blue-ooh

For you-ooh

I grabbed some frozen strawberries

So I could ice your bruising knees

But frozen things they all unfreeze and now I taste like

All those frozen strawberries I used to chill your bruising knees

Hot July ain’t good to me

I’m pink and black and blue

(For you)

I got bruises on my knees for you

And grass stains on my knees for you

Got holes in my new jeans for you

Got pink and black and blue

Got bruises on my knees for you

And grass stains on my knees for you

Got holes in my new jeans for you

Got pink and black and blue

For you-ooh

For you-ooh

So black and blue-ooh

For you-ooh
