guardheart - kyle stibbs lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
we’re not meant to talk when we’re not at the wall
so i check every morning for guard order call
if i see your name, i’ll write mine right beside
i can only learn you by the late lantern’s light

a soldier by trade, though you’d never know it
when i talk to you i turn into a poet
the nights get so cold, but the warmth keeps on growing
how empty, my hand, til the day that you hold it
the frontline grows closer than it was before
as an army so foreign comes carrying war
and falling in love is a burden of course
but who cares when it’s you that i carry it for?

[chorus]
if you give me your heart
i can be your guard

[verse 2]
one night you ask, “what if our city falls?”
i’m surprised by the question from someone so strong
you laugh at that and it has me enthralled
you say, “i’m only a man,”
oh, but that’s where you’re wrong

you’re a soldier by trade, though i’d never know it
you quietly sing with a voice oh so golden
i just heard one note and then i was beholden
to things, i’m afraid what you’d say if they’re spoken

the frontline grows closer it’s right at the door
and a feeling of fear echoes all through my core
your arm on my shoulder like never before
whispering “dying for you is someone worth dying for”
[chorus]
“if you give me your heart
i can be your guard”

[bridge]
a boulder comes crashing from catapult now
and the houses turned ashes from fire arrows
and i just took my first life from blade down to hilt
but if god doesn’t save you i promise i will

then a sword slashes across my ribs
a splatter of blood as the leather, it rips
you strike my foe down and you pull me close now
i hear you whispering this…

[chorus]
“you made me your guard
that makes you my heart”

[outro]
you pick me up running, no stopping now
in the distance our city comes crumbling down
you take my armour off buckle by buckle
and place in my hand a fresh picked honey suckle

hair behind ear from the push of your hand
i laugh and say “you’re so much more than a man”
you kiss my lips and the feeling’s sublime
now listener you decide if i survived
