You call me up about 2 in the morning
You say "I know it's late but can I see you?"
Somethings been on your mind
Your saying that I hide behind a wall
I'm frontin
And you just want to get through
But what happens when the honeymoon ends
Then you take back all the promises broken spoken
But I want to love you I got a wall to breakthrough
And then you leave I'm in too deep to surface again
I wanna let you in but I'm so guarded
Cause in the past I've been so brokenhearted
It's up to me to get this loving started
I'm guarded so guarded
You say to trust and that I must believe you
How will I know that you will always be true
Cause in the past I've been so brokenhearted
I'm guarded so guarded
It's like a game of cards I use to take a gamble
I played all or nothing and I kept losing
You said you don't play catch me and then walk away
No more crying and lying and misusing
But what happens when the honeymoon ends
And then you leave I'm in too deep to surface again
I wanna let you in but I'm so guarded
Cause in the past I've been so brokenhearted
It's up to me to get this loving started
I'm guarded so guarded
You said to trust and that I must believe you
How will I know that you will always be true
Cause in the past I've been so brokenhearted
I'm guarded so guarded
Between the sheets at night
I feel so secure
Trusting you'll never leave
How can I be sure
I'm so guarded I'm so guarded I'm so guarded
I'm guarded so guarded
You say to trust and that I must believe you
How will I know that you will always be true
Cause in the past I've been so brokenhearted
I'm guarded so guarded
I wanna let you in but I'm so guarded
Cause in the past I've been so brokenhearted
It's up to me to get this loving started
I'm guarded so guarded
You say to trust and that I must believe you
How will I know that you will always be true
Cause in the past I've been so brokenhearted
I'm guarded so guarded
