| I been walkin' through life with a bullet proof vest
|
| Shielding emotions, acting like I couldn’t care less
|
| I kept love at a distance my defenses were loced and alert
|
| Then you say hello and the next thing I know
|
| I’m ready to risk being hurt
|
| No more protecting my heart
|
| My soul is out of the dark now yes it is
|
| I’m settin' my sails, tail winds prevail and I’m on my way
|
| You’ve got me lettin' my guard down baby
|
| I wanna see what love has to offer me
|
| I’m showin' all my cards
|
| No more protecting my heart
|
| I been guilty of sayin' no when I could have said yes
|
| My heart’s history, well it hasn’t been the best
|
| But this time I’m trusting in somebody other then me
|
| I built the walls tall, now there gonna fall
|
| Got no more secrets to keep
|
| No more protecting my heart
|
| My soul is out of the dark now yes it is
|
| I’m settin' my sails, tail winds prevail and I’m on my way
|
| You’ve got me lettin' my guard down baby
|
| I wanna see what love has to offer me
|
| I’m showin' all my cards
|
| No more protecting my heart
|
| I been waitin', hesitatin', treadin' water, tryin' to stay afloat
|
| But now I’m headin' in the right direction finally filled with hope
|
| No more protecting my heart
|
| You’ve got me lettin' my guard down baby
|
| I wanna see what love has offer me
|
| I’m showin' all my cards
|
| No more protecting my heart
|
| Baby, I’m ready to start
|
| No more protecting my heart |
