Delta Goodrem Lyrics
The Guardian
words & music by Carl Falk, Sharon Vaughn, Carl Bjorsell
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 protector
Of a heart that's been abused
Chorus
I won't let love do me in again
I can't 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 name
The 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
chrous
I'm the guardian
I am the sole protector
Of a heart that's been abused
I won't let love
Risk a poison kiss
Just to have my thirst unquenched again
Let love do me in
