Guarded Heart

Guarded heart
Never unlocked
Guarded heart
Kept like a rock

Broken inside
No one can get through
Guarded heart
Who can touch you?

...and you keep your soul inside
All of your deepest depths you don't confide
Guarded heart.

Guarded heart
Locked away
I see your pain and striving everyday

Let me through
Guarded heart
I refuse to hurt you...

I won't push myself on you
I won't break, I won't take, I won't make you do
Guarded heart I refuse to hurt you.

I will heal
I will love
I'll give you space to be

I won't break through
But, I will open up myself to you

I'll take you as you are
Guarded heart
I'll take you as you are
