Protect Me

By: Tonese Rene Reed

Slowly you steal a glimpse of me
I look in your eyes
And for that second I saw your soul
For that second our passion stopped time

You held me in your arms
And I melted into you
We have to keep this a secret
Cause no one will approve

As long as we don't fall in love
Then no one else will know
As long as we both shield our hearts
Then our feelings cannot grow

When it's right and our bodies unite
Make love to my body as well as my mind
Take me to a land unheard of
Promise for that moment you're all mine

We have to maintain self-control
God, don't let my heart get involved
Protect my heart from his piercing eyes
Just protect my heart from love
