the wolf that guards the heart

be careful with my lover

she has a broken heart

and though i did some mean things to her

i loved her from the start

and if you are who she leans on now

be gentle

she is a paper wall in a hurricaine

she is the thin ice on the warm lake

in spring

she is always more

a woman

than you think

and she is fragile at the core

and sometimes nothing more

but to the outside world

she's tough as nails

and if you aren't a man

who can work with his hands

she won't stay

because the brain wants

but the heart can't be swayed

and she has a soul

as deep as the ocean

but she covers it up all the time

you have to be ready to dig

if you inherit an old diamond mine

and you're

over your head,

i can see

so listen

so very careful to me

be careful with my lover

she has a broken heart

but i am still

a wolf watching over

and if you hurt her

i'll tear you apart

if you hurt her

i'll tear you

apart
