PROTECTOR
Mom, can I hear the lullaby, please?
And there I was, tangled up in marigold
We were listening to the reverend children singing
(Sing, sing, sing, sing) hm, yeah
Hummin' low as the garden river flows
While the August light becomes a golden evenin' (evenin'), yeah
And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way
Born to be a protector, mm-hmm
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, mm, mm-hmm
An apricot picked right off a given tree
I gave water to the soil, and now it feeds me, yeah, yeah (yeah)
And there you are, shaded underneath it all
I feel proud of who I am, because you need me, yeah (yeah)
And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way (uh)
Born to be a protector-tor, mm
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, mm-hm
And even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, projector, projector
I first saw your face in your father's gaze
There's a long line of hands carryin' your name, mm
Liftin' you up, so you will be raised
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, yeah
And even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your protector, born to be a protector
Okay
And there I was, tangled up in marigold
We were listening to the reverend children singing
(Sing, sing, sing, sing) hm, yeah
Hummin' low as the garden river flows
While the August light becomes a golden evenin' (evenin'), yeah
And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way
Born to be a protector, mm-hmm
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, mm, mm-hmm
An apricot picked right off a given tree
I gave water to the soil, and now it feeds me, yeah, yeah (yeah)
And there you are, shaded underneath it all
I feel proud of who I am, because you need me, yeah (yeah)
And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way (uh)
Born to be a protector-tor, mm
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, mm-hm
And even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, projector, projector
I first saw your face in your father's gaze
There's a long line of hands carryin' your name, mm
Liftin' you up, so you will be raised
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, yeah
And even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your protector, born to be a protector
Okay
