Protection (Feat. Tracey Thorn) |
| This girl I know needs some shelter |
| She don’t believe anyone can help her |
| She’s doing so much harm, doing so much damage |
| But you don’t want to get involved |
| You tell her she can manage |
| And you can’t change the way she feels |
| But you could put your arms around her |
| I know you want to live yourself |
| But could you forgive yourself |
| If you left her just the way |
| You found her |
| I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| You’re a boy and I’m a girl |
| But you know you can lean on me And I don’t have no fear |
| I’ll take on any man here |
| Who says that’s not the way it should be I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| She’s a girl and you’re a boy |
| Sometimes you look so small, look so small |
| You’ve got a baby of your own |
| When your baby’s grown, she’ll be the one |
| To catch you when you fall |
| I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| You’re a girl and I’m a boy (x4) |
| Sometimes you look so small, need some shelter |
| Just runnin' round and round, helter skelter |
| And I’ve leaned on you |
| Now you can lean on me And that’s more than love, that’s the way |
| It should be Now I can’t change the way you think |
| But I can put my arms around you |
| That’s just part of the deal |
| That’s the way I feel |
| I put my arms around you |
| I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| I stand in front of you |
| I’ll take the force of the blow |
| Protection |
| You’re a boy and I’m a girl (x4) |
