Verse 1 I've had my soul crushed beyond recognition Hurt in ways I never thought I'd know I swore I'd never trust again So I built these walls up stone by stone I wanted to give up, wanted to let go Told myself the love I hoped for wasn't real Pre-Chorus 1 It was easier that way Keeping me safe from the damage done From ever believing love was out there for me Chorus 1 A broken man behind these walls Too afraid to feel at all Told myself I was better this way Love was just a lie anyway A once broken man With nothing left to give Just trying to find a reason Just trying to learn to live Verse 2 Then one day you appeared And shattered every wall I built You turned it all to rubble, turned it to dust Your smile showed me a beautiful caring soul Your eyes revealed a heart so full of love Pre-Chorus 2 You took my shattered heart and piece by piece Slowly put it back together Showing me what I could only dream Chorus 2 A once broken man I no longer see When I look in the mirror All because of you You showed me what real love is What real love can be A once broken man Finally set free Bridge You were patient You were kind You understood this broken heart of mine You never gave up You never walked away You reached into the dark and pulled me through And I thank God for the day I found you Final Chorus A once broken man I no longer see When I look in the mirror All because of you You showed me what real love is What real love can be A once broken man Finally set free Outro A once broken man Finally set free All because of you All because of you (fade)
