Bare Hands Lyrics

I got a question on my mind
You can answer in your time
Just don’t freeze like a deer in the headlight
Sometimes, it’s the risk of getting hurt
That’s beautiful and worse
Is being numb and feeling nothing at all

A little pain let's you know you’re alive
You’ve gotta live and love not just survive

Chorus:
Hearts that don’t love can’t be broken
A dream stays a dream if not woken
If you never bleed then you won’t understand
Come pick me red roses with your bare hands

I’m standing right in front of you
But you don't know what to do
It’s the fear of thorns keeps you out of the garden
Be brave, be the fool you’ve never been
Cause I’ll be here to kiss your skin
Meet me on the path where love could begin

Chorus

Chorus

Make me feel I’m worth it
Don’t love me with gloves on
Pick me roses with your bare hands
Make me feel I’m worth the scratches

Chorus

Chorus

A little pain let's you know you’re alive
You’ve gotta live and love not just survive
With your bare hands
A little pain let's you know you’re alive
You’ve gotta live and love not just survive
With your bare hands
With your bare hands.

One of my favourites off her new album. It's about taking a risk in life and love, and being a fool for the person you love.

It's definately personal. Between her and her fiance Brian. 'Make me feel I'm worth the scratches' to me sounds like all the bad press they got!

The entire album seems to be more sexually charged... and a tad reminiscent of another artist... Celine anyone?

This song is self explanitary. Cept i don't drag it as a literal meaning reflection of stuff between her and brian.

On a light hearted note, don't love me with gloves on? Will Delta soon be pregnant then? lol

it took me a while to get used to it, but the more i listen to it, the more i hear it, the more i can relate

it is definately my favourite song on the album the rose garden metaphor is really pretty

"Don’t love me with gloves on Pick me roses with your bare hands Make me feel I’m worth the scratches"

"It’s the fear of thorns keeps you out of the garden...Meet me on the path where love could begin"

as a pop song the lyrics are lush and flawless and the electronic element makes it different from a lot of delta's others

quite straight forward in meaning.. 'i'm here, don't be scared, just love me' or something along the lines of that.
