Gotta keep my heart Protected

I wake up in the morning
Still tipsy from the night before
My eyes begin to focus 
I see your shirt still hanging on my door

I remember slowly what happened last night
And I put my hand to my head
We were meant to be just friends
But somehow you've ended up in my bed

Our legs are entwined 
Our bodies are completely bare
your hand around my waist
and your face is buried in my hair

We were meant to keep our distance
Cos you said you were falling in too deep
I gotta keep my heart protected
And stop watching you in your sleep

I wake you out your slumber
and say its time for you to get dressed
You put your clothes back on
And say how much you were impressed

You catch my eye as your leaving
And you see whats really there
You whisper in my ear
'When was our love ever really fair?"

I cant let you fall in love again
Even though, I know I'm feeling the same
I gotta keep my heart protected
It cant take any more pain

I tell you it's definitely over
We both know it wouldn't work
I gotta keep my heart protected
It wont be if I'm love struck

You have to walk away now
I'm not in the right frame of mind
I need to start a fresh now
And leave my past behind

Its time to say goodbye
But I cant look you in the eye
I cant let you see me cry
I cant take the risk to try

I gotta keep my heart protected
At what ever cost it may take
I cant let myself do this
I try convince myself your a mistake

I have to turn away now
and close the door to the past
I just kept my heart protected
I will never know how long it would last.
