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
