Kiss'em Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You cut your finger
You bump your head
And sweet words are said in vain
But she takes you in her arms
And hugs you instead
Puts the lips to the pain
And the heart stays soft
And the hide grows tough
And we live to hurt again
Kiss 'em away
Kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love,
Oh mama please, kiss 'em away
Kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love
Life's the only game we play
And the heart of the matter is love
And our reason for being
Depends on the game
We dream and we must dream on
And the heart stays soft
And the hide grows tough
And we live to love again
Because you kiss 'em away
You kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love,
Oh oh, kiss 'em away
Oh kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love
The eyes of memory can play tricks on you
Erase the hurt from your heart
See the truth and live what's true
Kiss 'em away, come on
You got to kiss 'em away
Kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love,
Oh oh, kiss 'em away
Oh kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love
Oh kiss away the bruises of love
Oh mama, you gotta kiss 'em away
Oh you kiss 'em away
Kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love
Oh you got to kiss 'em away
Oh kiss 'em away
Kiss away the bruises of love
