Lyrics

THERE'S A CRACK IN MY ARMOR
AND I KNOW IT'S YOU
BUT ALL I CAN THINK OF
AND ALL I CAN DO
IS TO FOLLOW MY HEART
CAUSE I'M OUT OF MY MIND
THERE'S A CRACK IN MY ARMOR
EASY FOR YOU TO FIND

THERE'S A HOLE IN MY POCKET
WHERE THE CHANGE DISAPPEARS
OR COULD IT BE THE PHONE CALLS
I MAKE EVERYWHERE
TO FIND SOMEONE THAT'S SEEN YOU
OR KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE
THERE'S A HOLE IN MY POCKET
LIKE THE ONE IN MY HEART

THERE'S A MEMORY YOU LEFT ME
OF A RIVER I CRIED
BUT THE TRUTH CAN'T PROTECT ME
FROM THAT LOOK (alt: "THE BLUE") IN YOUR EYES

I SWORE I'D NEVER LET YOU
BREAK MY HEART AGAIN
BUT THERE'S A CRACK IN MY ARMOR
AND THE PAIN'S MOVING IN

I'LL FOLLOW MY HEART
CAUSE I'M OUT OF MY MIND
THERE'S A CRACK IN MY ARMOR
AND IT'S EASY FOR YOU TO FIND
