PROTECT YOUR HEART
(Lunsford/Meltsner)

I've tried to tell you in so many ways
I wish that you would listen to me
That guy's no good for you
I'm still trying to make you see
I'm gonna say it one more time
I know that you don't want to hear
But I can't help but speak mind
I hope that I can make it clear
Got to protect your heart...protect your heart

Better watch out for pretty lies
And words that sound a little bit strange
One day you're gonna realize
He's never ever gonna change
He'll be what you want him to be
He'll say what you want him to say
And I wish that you would
Listen to me 'cause
He's gonna hurt you deep one day
Got to protect your heart...protect your heart
Take care of your heart girl...
Protect your heart

He treats you like a fool, he's just using you
I know exactly what he's gonna do
He's gonna take your love
And break that great big beautiful heart

I know you're gone, you set me free
I'm talking to you now as a friend
You don't have to be a gypsy, girl
To know how its gonna end
I ain't sayin' I'm better than him
Just trying to look out for you
But don't say I didn't warn you when
He breaks that lovin' heart in two
Got to protect your heart...protect your heart
Take care of your heart girl...protect your heart

He says he cares for you, but don't be fooled
I know exactly what he's gonna do
He's gonna take your love
And break that great big beautiful heart
That beautiful heart
Take care of your heart girl
That beautiful heart...that beautiful heart
