This girl I know needs some shelter She don't believe anyone can help her She's doing so much harm, doing so much damage But you don't want to get involved You tell her she can manage And you can't change the way she feels But you could put your arms around her I know you want to live yourself But could you forgive yourself If you left her just the way You found her I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection You're a boy and I'm a girl But you know you can lean on me And I don't have no fear I'll take on any man here Who says that's not the way it should be I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection She's a girl and you're a boy Sometimes you look so small, look so small You've got a baby of your own When your baby's grown, she'll be the one To catch you when you fall I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection You're a girl and I'm a boy You're a girl and I'm a boy, yeah You're a girl and I'm a boy You're a girl and I'm a boy Sometimes you look so small, need some shelter Just runnin' round and round, Helter Skelter And I've leaned on you for years Now you can lean on me And that's more than love, that's the way It should be Now I can't change the way you think But I could put my arms around you That's just part of the deal That's the way I feel I put my arms around you I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection You're a boy and I'm a girl You're a boy and I'm a girl, hey You're a boy and I'm a girl You're a boy and I'm a girl, yeah
