Guard Your Heart

What appears to be a harmless glance
Can turn to romance
And homes are divided
Feelings that should never have been
Awakened within
Tearing the heart in two
Listen, I beg of you

Guard your heart
Guard your heart
Don't trade it for treasure
Don't give it away

Guard your heart
Guard your heart
As a payment for pleasure
It's a high price to pay

For a soul that remains sincere with conscience clear
Guard your heart

The human heart is easily swayed
And often betrayed at the hand of emotion
You dare not leave the outcome to chance
You must choose in advance
Or live with the agony
Such needless tragedy

Guard your heart
Guard your heart
Don't trade it for treasure
Don't give it away

Guard your heart
Guard your heart
As a payment for pleasure
It's a high price to pay

For a sould that remains sincere with conscience clear
Guard your heart
