gatsby - Newfoundland

Defender

I was head in the sand
Couldn't see just what I had
I was all out at sea
But you stayed right there for me
I was down on my knees
I was very lost indeed
But you wanted me to be your Defender

You stood beautiful and tall
While I raised a crumbling wall
And you watched as it creaked
And it almost buried me
With my gracelessness and greed
I've been very lost indeed
You still wanted me to be your Defender

At the end of the day
When the shops close and the lights all fade
You'll forgive all I did
And allow me these clichés
'Cos you're out of my league
In your goodness and beauty
Won't you please let me be your Defender

'Cos you're out of my league
But for a tiny transfer fee
If you want I will be your Defender
If you want I will be your Defender
Your Defender
