Vulnerable

Roxette · Rarities

Everywhere I look I see her smile
Her absent-minded eyes
And she has kept me wondering for so long
How this thing could go wrong

It seems to me that we are both the same
Playing the same game
But as darkness falls this true love falls apart
Into a riddle of her heart

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable, and I don't understand
I could never hurt the one I love
She's all I've got
But she's so vulnerable
Oh so vulnerable

Days like these no one should be alone
No heart should hide away
Her touch is gently conquering my mind
There's nothing words can say

She's colored all the secrets of my soul
I've whispered all my dreams
But just as nighttime falls this vision falls apart
Into a riddle of her heart, yeah

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand
I could never hurt someone I love
She's all I've got
But she's so vulnerable
Oh so vulnerable.

Don't hide your eyes...

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand
I could never hurt the one I love
She's all I've got

She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand
I could never hurt someone I love
She's all I've got
But she's so vulnerable
Oh so vulnerable.

She's so vulnerable
My baby, she's vulnerable
She's so vulnerable

Vulnerable - Roxette

Released as part of Roxette's extensive discography, 'Vulnerable' stands as a poignant example of the duo's signature blend of pop and rock. The track features Maria Björk's emotive vocals, a hallmark of their career, delivered over a driving rhythm that underscores themes of emotional exposure and resilience. While often associated with their broader catalog of hits, this recording reflects the band's ability to explore deeper, more introspective territories alongside their mainstream successes. The song remains a testament to their enduring influence on the genre, capturing a specific era of Swedish pop with its characteristic energy and lyrical depth.
