The Guardian

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I push through the crowd Without looking back To leave you behind Took all I had And maybe I'm wrong I might be sorry [Verse 2] But what kind of fool Would hope for a change? Then write a new word On a page that is stained And ruined by a lie You shouldn't have told me [Pre-Chorus] I'm the guardian I am the sole protector On a heart that's been abused [Chorus] I won't let love do me in again I can't just run to the light Of a fire and jump in Risk a poison kiss just to have My thirst unquenched again Let love do me in [Verse 3] I swallow the urge To call out your name The need crashes in I brace for the wave And pray it will pass Not take me under [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause, I'm the guardian I am the last defense for My weakened heart That still wants you [Chorus] I won't let love do me in again I can't just run to the light Of a fire and jump in Risk a poison kiss just to have My thirst unquenched again Let love do me in, oh [Pre-Chorus] I'm the guardian I am the sole protector Of a heart that's been abused [Chorus] I won't let love Risk a poison kiss just to have My thirst unquenched again Let love do me in
