I've got footprints on my welcome mat
Where all the goodbyes left it flat
Imperfections even photographs can't hide
I've got baggage that goes on for days
As dusty as my window shades
Where I keep all my yesterdays inside
But when my back's against a wall
He takes my hand to ease the fall
No, he doesn't mind at all that I'm so messy
And in spite of all it's scars, he still loves my jagged heart
He says it's a work of art, he thinks it's sexy
That I'm so messy
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
He's as steady as the sky is blue
He's had his share of his storms too
I think that's why he handles mine so well
We dance on our kitchen floor
When we're low on love, we just make more
A lifetime's full of stories on our shelves
But when my back's against a wall
He takes my hand to ease the fall
No, he doesn't mind at all that I'm so messy
And in spite of all it's scars, he still loves my jagged heart
He says it's a work of art, he thinks its sexy
That I'm so messy
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
But when my back's against a wall
He takes my hand to ease the fall
No, he doesn't mind at all that I'm so messy
And in spite of all it's scars, he still loves my jagged heart
He says it's a work of art, he thinks its sexy
When my back's against a wall
He takes my hand to ease the fall
No, he doesn't mind at all that I'm so messy
And in spite of all it's scars, he still loves my jagged heart
He says it's a work of art, he thinks its sexy
That I'm so messy
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
