Leather and Lace Lyrics

Is love so fragile?
Is a heart so hollow?
Shatter with words
Impossible to follow

You're saying I'm fragile
Try not to be like such a way
For something I can't say

But I have my own life
And I am stronger than you know

Still I carry this feeling
When you came into my house
You won't be walking out the door

Still I carry this feeling
When you came into my house
You won't be walking out the door

(chorus)
Lovers forever
Face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give me your leather
Take from me my lace

You weeped in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me?

And you were right
When I walked into your house
You knew I never want you to leave

Sometimes I'm a strong man
Sometimes cold and scared
Sometimes I cry

But that time I saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I'd get by

(chorus twice)

Take from me my lace (repeat until end of song)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
