Glassheart
Glassheart is the third studio album by British recording artist Leona Lewis, released on 12 October 2012 by Syco Music and RCA Records. The album is Lewis' first under RCA Records after parent company Sony Music Entertainment closed J Records and relocated its artists. Glassheart was conceived in 2010 shortly after the completion of Lewis' first headline tour, The Labyrinth. Recording and production took place in Denver, Los Angeles and London; originally the album was due for release in November 2011 but was pushed back several times to accommodate new recording sessions and allow more creative time.
On Glassheart, Lewis reunites with Ryan Tedder, record producer of her previous singles "Bleeding Love" and "Happy" and songwriter Andrea Martin who co-wrote "Better in Time," in addition to a number of new collaborators such as British duo Naughty Boy and Emeli Sandé, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and DJ Frank E. Producer Fraser T Smith executive produced the album after impressing Lewis with his work on Hurt: The EP (2011), a cover song extended play (EP) that Lewis released to bridge the gap between Echo (2009) and Glassheart.
Glassheart (song)
"Glassheart" is a song recorded by British singer-songwriter Leona Lewis for her third studio album of the same name (2012). The song was conceptualised by Lewis and frequent collaborator Ryan Tedder at his family home in Denver, Colorado. As she was experiencing a stressful time in her life, Lewis wanted to create an uptempo dance track with Tedder as she felt a ballad would make her more upset. It was co-written by Lewis and Tedder alongside Brent Kutzle, Noel Zancanella, Justin Franks, Fis Shkreli and Peter Svensson. Production of the song was handled by Tedder and Franks, with the latter credited under his production alias DJ Frank E. It was co-produced by Zancanella, Kutzle and Shkreli.
"Glassheart" is an up-tempo dance song that incorporates elements of dubstep, grime and house music. Lyrically, it is about a woman's fear that her boyfriend will leave her and thus she protects her emotions and her heart from breaking. The song received positive reviews from music critics, many of whom praised the musical direction and its grimy, dubstep breakdown. Upon the release of Glassheart, the song debuted at number 27 on the UK Dance Chart due to strong digital download sales during the first week of Glassheart's release. It debuted at number 167 on the UK Singles Chart. Lewis has performed the song at London nightclub G-A-Y and an acoustic version for UK newspaper The Sun's Biz Sessions.

Glass Heart
by: Leona Lewis(Not recognised)
Tragic, broken like a china door
Burning like a gun shot
My heart is breaking
It always hurts
And through each other
Down on the floor
My heart is breaking
It's made of glass
And anything that's good never ever lasts
(Chorus)
So baby if you love me, let me know
'Cause everything hurts just like before
Your about to tear this heart apart
I love you like a glass heart
So baby if you love me, let me know
'Cause everytime you touch, touch turn to go
Promise I will never fall apart
And I love you with my glass heart (x3)
Running round, staring at our empty room
Staring at the window
I hear music that we used to make
But maybe I shouldn't though
My heart was beatin'
And so was yours
And through each other
Down on the floor
My heart is breaking
It's made of glass
And anything that's good never ever lasts
(Chorus)
So baby if you love me, let me know
'Cause everything hurts just like before
Your about to tear this heart apart
And break another glass heart
So baby if you love me, let me know
'Cause everytime you touch, touch turn to go
Promise I will never fall apart
And I love you with my glass heart (x3)
And you promised not to let me fall apart
Fall apart
And I love you with my glass heart
So baby if you love me, let me know
'Cause everytime you touch, touch turn to go
Promise I will never fall apart
