PROTECTOR Lyrics

Mom, can I hear the lullaby
Please?
And there I was, tangled up in marigold
We were listening to the reverent children singing, huh, yeah (Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing)
Humming low as the garden river flows
While the August light becomes a golden evening, yeah (Evening)
And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way
Born to be a protector, mm-hmm
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, mmm, mm-hmm
An apricot picked right off a giving tree
I gave water to the soil, and now it feeds me, yeah, yeah (Yeah)
And there you are, shaded underneath it all
I feel proud of who I am because you need me, yeah (Yeah)
And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way
Uh, born to be a protector, 'tor, mmm
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, mm-hmm
And even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector
Projector, projector
I first saw your face in your father's gaze
There's a long line of hands carrying your name
Mmm, lifting you up so you will be raised
Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector, yeah, yeah
And even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your protector
Born to be a protector
Okay
