sheltered heart

i needed protection, needed a place to hide, i wanted, a fortress, so love couldn't get inside, and, i made it strong and tall, i swore i'd never see it fall, and no more at all, could break through this sheltered heart, break through this sheltered heart, break through this sheltered heart, oh won't you tear down the walls, i've built all around me, i wanna learn to win, i think i could love again, break down these walls, break down this sheltered heart, been keeping, my distance safe, behind this guarded wall, concealing my feelings, till i couldn't feel at all, and, i closed and locked the door, but maybe i've been waiting for, someone like you, to break down this sheltered heart
