Christina Perri Jar Of Hearts lyrics

 
I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

And I've learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/christina_perri/jar_of_hearts.html ]
And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are

And it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

This song is about a girl would loved a boy with every part of her and he loved her deeply but he didn't fully understand what he had when he was with her, breaking up was the hardest decision she had to make, she could see he felt something for someone else even though he said he still loved her and would deny any feelings for the other girl, but he wanted to see if there was something better and not settle down just yet for he was only so young, so after she had enough of the lies she left him and he chose to purse the other girl, but all the while his first love was on his mind. She was still heart broken and still loved him, but hates what he did to her at the same time. Even looking at him brought memories of what they had together, and she felt as though no one could replace what she had with him. A year goes by and throughout the year the boy stays with the other girl but knows it was not anywhere near the magic he had with his first love. He comes back into her life wanting her advice and help with what he should do, wanting his first love to tell him that she still needs him. But she has learnt never to trust him again, she will never let someone throw her away to find something better and then come to the realisation that she was the best he could have ever had and expect her to jump straight back into his arms. He hurt her so deeply that just coming back into her life wont fix it, she wishes she never met him so he could have never hurt her, wishes he didnt have any control over her, and wishes she never fell in love with a liar. Who does he think he is coming back into her life after lying and choosing someone else to replace her, it will never work because of all the hurt he caused, all the lies he said and the hate created. The scar will be with her for the rest of her life but its a reminder to her to never let someone steal a part of her again, never to be tricked into believing empty words but mostly it is a reminder to never be tricked by him again. The scar is a learning curve so she can only improve what she has from now on and as soon as there is doubt she will let her heart take over and end it before she gets another gash that should have been prevented from the start.

About this lyrics

Perri penned the song about a serial heartbreaker she once dated. The singer stated in her blog the story behind the tune: "I wrote the song after I went home to Philadelphia for the holiday last December. I sat in my childhood bedroom and hid from the boy (with the jar of hearts) who wanted to see me. My heart wanted to see him, my head knew better." The song's music video was directed by Jay Martin and was shot on a soundstage designed as a New York City street.

When i heard this song brought back memories of my ex boyfriend i was with for many years,cheated on me with an older woman he worked with. He tried to come back and denied all the lies. Painful but was better off. Now the that woman he ended up marrying and good luck to her with his karma and jar of hearts.

This song to me was about a boy who treated her wrong by maybe cheating, or lying. And she dumped him and maybe he said something like "i dont need you" and left, a few weeks later, he comes back and wants her. He wants to cheat or lie again. So she writes this song to him saying that she does not want him back and he should get a life. I know this becuase i am accually going through this. Lifes a bitch. Then you die.

This is a song about one girl, who loved a boy. He lied to her, but she loved him deeply. All she ever wanted was her one true love, and she thought he was it. But she was wrong, way wrong. He collected his jar of hearts from any girl he could, and caused many scars. S[he] be[lie]ve[d]

It's about a girl who finds her true love and he turns out to be a dirty person that breaks every girl's heart

It is a song about someone cheating on another. It is actually quite an upseting song but one of my favourites so when i listen to the song i don't think about the meanings!

Someone cheating on someone. She sings explaining how she had loved him but he was a player and left her without telling. He went off with someone else and now wants this old girl back but she has grown too strong to fall for a cheater like him.
