I'll Protect You


The thought of you hurting

Alone in your bed

With no one to hold you

My tears start to flow

I want you to smile

Giggle and grin

No tears on your pillow

Cause this is the end

The end of you crying

And the end of your sorrow

If you need a shoulder

I'll give you my own to borrow

Cause there's no need to suffer

When you have me by your side

I'll fight all of your demons

And show you the light
