Massive Attack - Protection Lyrics
Tracy thornThis girl I know needs some shelterShe dont believe anyone can help herShes doing so much harm, doing so much damageBut you dont want to get involvedYou tell her she can manageAnd you cant change the way she feelsBut you could put your arms around herI know you want to live yourselfBut could you forgive yourselfIf you left her just the wayYou found herI stand in front of youIll take the force of the blowProtectionYoure a boy and Im a girlBut you know you can lean on meAnd I dont have no fearIll take on any man hereWho says thats not the way it should beI stand in front of youTake the force of the blowProtectionShes a girl and youre a boySometimes you look so small, you look so smallYou got a baby of your ownWhen your babys grown, shell be the oneTo catch you when you fallStand in front of youTake the force of the blowProtectionYoure a girl and Im a boy (x4)Sometimes you look so small, need some shelterJust runnin round and round, helter skelterAnd Ive leaned on you for yearsNow you can lean on meAn thats more than love, thats the wayIt should beNow I cant change the way you thinkBut I can put my arms around youThats just part of the dealThats the way I feelI put my arms around youI stand in front of youTake the force of the blowProtectionYoure a boy and Im a girl (x4)
