I Want to Protect You

I Want to Protect You

1. I Want to Protect You

I Want to Protect You

(chorus)

you don't have to worry, worry

I want to protect you, baby

your innocence means it all to me

everything in the whole world

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

the first time I ever saw you

I was at a loss for words

because it was like

I could never forget you

we connected on a level

that no one else had before

I had learned to settle

and that's unlike me

it was a long summer

and then it was over

in the blink of an eye

but one more time

will you take my feelings and be mine

and run away with me to the sky?

(chorus)

so you don't have to worry, worry

I want to protect you, baby

your innocence means it all to me

everything in the whole world

cause I love you

cause I love you

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

you appreciate that I'm so earnest

I can tell you're honest

to a fault but I'm gullible

your weakness is my strength

and you can do what I can't do

then we break even

laughing in the evening

jokes fill the days

whispers fill the nights

gone are the people who never stayed

but once more

please take a tour

of my life and never leave me

(chorus)

so you don't have to worry, worry

I want to protect you, baby

hold my hand and then understand

for us life is so grand

cause I love you

cause I love you

(end chorus)

(chorus)

so you don't have to worry, worry

I want to protect you, baby

your innocence means it all to me

everything in the whole world

cause I love you

I want to protect you, baby mmhmm

(end chorus)
