lyrics

If I give you my hand
Will you walk with me?
Even crowded city streets can leave me lonely
My days get empty
When you’re not with me

When I sing by myself
Will you stay with me
Oh cause when the music ends
It leaves me empty
I have no heart beat
When you’re not with me

Won’t you call off the guard
And take off your armor?
I have no intention of leaving you torn and scarred
For just one night won’t you lay down your shield and sword?

If they turn out your light
I will help guide you
Even strength may need a hand
My door is open
I’m always hoping
When you’re not with me

Won’t you call off the guard
And take off your armor?
I have no intention of leaving you torn and scarred
For just one night won’t you lay down your shield and sword?

Nothing is ever sure
But I can promise you
I will be honest and true
Put your hand in mine
I will want no one else
As long as I have you

Won’t you call off the guard
And take off your armor?
I have no intention of leaving you torn and scarred
For just one night won’t you lay down your shield and sword?

For just one night, won’t you believe I’m yours?
