the guardian

Delta Goodrem

I push through the crowd
Without looking back
To leave you behind
Took all that I had
And maybe I'm wrong
I might be sorry

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

I'm the guardian
I am the sole protecter
Of a heart that's been abused

I wont let love do me in again
I cant 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

I swallow the urge
To call out your nameThe need crashes in
I brace for the wave
And pray it will pass
Not take me under

Cause, I'm the guardian
I am the last defence for
My weakened heart
That still wants you

I wont let love do me in again
I cant 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

I'm the guardian
I am the sole protector
Of a heart that's been abused

I wont let love do me in again
I cant 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
