If you were in my heart I'd surely not break you
If you were beside me and my love would take you
I'll keep you in safety forever protect you
I'll hide you away from the world you rejected
I'll hide you
I'll hide you

Take my hand, show no fear
Look in my eyes, it's perfectly clear
I'll love you and cover you, ask me to tell you what I wanna do
I'll hide you away from danger, danger
Hide you, hide you, hide you, hide you
Hide you, hide you, hide you

If you were beside me and my love would take you
I'll keep you in safety forever protect you
I'll hide you away from the world you rejected
I'll hide you, I'll hide you

Take my hand, show no fear
Look in my eyes, it's perfectly clear
I'll love you and cover you ask me to tell you what I wanna do
I'll hide you away from danger, danger
Hide you, hide you, hide you, hide you
Hide you, hide you

If you were in my heart I'd surely not break you
If you were beside me and my love would take you
I'll keep you in safety forever protect you
I'll hide you away from the world you rejected
I'll hide you, I'll hide you

If you were in my heart I'd surely not break you
If you were beside me and my love would take you
I'll keep you in safety forever protect you
I'll hide you away from the world you rejected
I'll hide you
I'll hide you
