Drop Your Guard - Jasmine Thompson

Still waters run deep

Why do you always hide from me

How do you keep

All your troubles underneath

Emotion is a wild thing

I’m trying not to feel it

We get on

Yeah somehow we get by

We’re alright cos

Love runs deep

Deeper than the darker sea

So drop your guard

Why do you have to be so hard

Those paper dolls

Hold each other by the hand

One cut and they break

I’m trying to make you understand

Emotion is a wild thing

Together we can tame it

Look again

Don’t you realise

It’s in my eyes

Love runs deep

Deeper than the darker sea

So drop your guard

Why do you have to be so hard

I wasn’t asking you to open up

To open up

It’s not my business anyway

It’s just that when you’re hurting

It’s like I’m always searching

For the right words to say

We have an un-spoken rule

That you’re always so cruel

Maybe I’m wrong to believe

But in my dreams

Our love runs deep

Deeper than the darker sea

So drop your guard

Why do you have to be so hard

Our love runs deep

Deeper than the darker sea

So drop your guard

Why do you have to be so hard
