Guard My Heart

(album: Fishin' For Woos - 2011)

Ask me a question
And I'll fill you full of lies
I know now the truth is bigger than my disguise
The message that I sent was shot down long ago
All I wanted was a simple yes but you said no

You can't see my point of view
You're too caught up in protecting you
I'll put on a smile and wait just like I often do
Then I'll make myself a promise too

I need correspondence
So please give me an answer do
Could you repeat that one more time so I believe it's true
I've got a unique talent for seeing things that other people can't
I know your heart is shot full of holes from mistakes made in the past

You can't see my point of view
You're too caught up in protecting you
I put on a smile and wait just like I often do
You say we're friends so I'll just guard my heart
If I don't you might tear me apart

Tear me apart
I know you don't believe it
But I could never do that to you
How I wish that you could see it all from the eyes I look through

But you can't see my point of view
You're too caught up in protecting you
I put on a smile and wait just like I often do
You say were friends so I'll just guard my heart
If I don't you might tear me apart

Tear me apart
Tear me apart
You can't see my point of view
(Tear me apart)
'Cus you're too caught up in protecting you
(Tear me apart)
I put on a smile and wait just like I often do
Then I'll make myself a promise too
