lyrics

Guard Down

Had a great day, so sad it had to end.
But they always come around again.
See you waving in the rear view.

I was in a place, in a state. I was gunna lay low but then -
It hit me like a soft wind.
All my senses in motion again.

Have I finally let my guard down?
Are you happy with the outcome?

You remind me of a child, of a child with soap in his eyes.
I don’t tell him not to cry. It’s a blur, then a clear view.
And I have never met anyone as real as you
Since I left my mothers womb.

Have I finally let my guard down?
Are you happy with the outcome?
