I want a true love don't get me wrong
somebody to rely on
through the rain and the storm
oh to keep me warm
this I know, this I know
No I won't let you in so easily
Cause I've been there before believe me
Lookin around I see the same old thing
No I won't, no I won't settle
so I think I'll keep my guarded heart
(ah ah ah)
so I think I'll keep my guarded heart
for a little bit longer
(a little bit longer)
oh guarded heart
mmm guarded heart
Never the right time, never the right place
I ask myself oh oh what will it take?
I've seen a lot of broken hearts, a lot of pain, a lot of scars
gonna keep my distance for now
gonna keep my distance for now
No I won't let you in so easily
Cause I've been there before believe me
Lookin around I see the same old thing
No I won't no I won't settle
so I think I'll keep my guarded heart
(ah ah ah)
so I think I'll keep my guarded heart
for a little bit longer
( a little bit longer)
oh guarded heart
mmm guarded heart
No I won't jump when I don't know
what's comin next
I've got my reservations
standin' strong
oh oh
so I think ill keep my guarded heart
i'll never show it
so I think I'll keep my guarded heart
for a little bit longer
oh guarded heart
woah o woah guarded heart
No I won't let you in so easily
Cause I've been there before believe me (you gotta believe me)
lookin' around I see the same old thing
no I won't no I won't settle
(no i can't no i can't)
so i think i'll keep my guarded heart
so i think i'll keep my guarded heart
for a little bit longer
(its my heart to keep)
just a little bit just a little bit
mmm guarded heart
its what I want, its what I need
guarded heart
