No More Protecting My Heart Songtext
von Jamie O’Neal

I′ve been walkin' through life with a bulletproof vest
Shielding emotions, acting like I couldn′t care less
I kept love at a distance, my defences were locked and alert
Then you say hello and the next thing I know
I'm ready to risk being hurt

No more protecting my heart now, darlin'
My soul is out of the dark now, yes, it is
I′m settin′ my sails, tailwinds prevail, and I'm on my way
You′ve got me lettin' my guard down baby
I wanna see what love has to offer me
I′m showin' all my cards
No more protecting my heart

I′ve been guilty of sayin' no when I could have said yes
My heart's history, well, it hasn′t been the best
But this time I′m trusting in somebody other than me
I built the walls tall, now there gonna fall
Got no more secrets to keep


No more protecting my heart now, darlin'
My soul is out of the dark now, yes, it is
I′m settin' my sails, tailwinds prevail, and I′m on my way
You've got me lettin′ my guard down baby
I wanna see what love has to offer me
I'm showin' all my cards
No more protecting my heart

I′ve been waitin′, hesitatin', treadin′ water, tryin' to stay afloat
But now I′m headin' in the right direction finally filled with hope
No more protecting my heart

Oh, you′ve got me lettin' my guard down baby
I wanna see what love has to offer me
I'm showin′ all my cards
No more protecting my heart
Baby, I′m ready to start
No more protecting my heart
Oh-oh
No more protecting my heart
