Protection

Pulling on the clothes that never really fit.
Hoping she can get away with it ... Protection.
Standing on the pavement climbing into cars.
Hoping the face reflects the heart ... Protection.
All right now ... All right now
There's not a moment that I'm not protective of you.

Groping in the darkness, reaching for your shoes.
Nobody cares for a child with your connections.
Talking with the crew she's eager to impress.
Selling us a line in emptiness.
You're tired little girl.
All right now ... All right now
There's not a moment that I'm not protective of you.
There's not a moment that I'm not affected by you.

Riding on a wave you juvenile crime.
I wonder if you can get off on time
or whether you'd want to.
Where did you get that bruise on your face.
You must have come home in a terrible state ... Protection.
All right now ... All right now.
There's not a moment that I'm not protective of you.
There's not a moment that I'm not affected by you.
