Nothing's gonna hurt you baby
As long as you're with me you'll be just fine
I think of how I held onto
your arm so tightly
as we crossed the street.
I said I was afraid
just so I could feel the way
your veins protrude and
your bones shake.
I just wanted to be
close enough
to feel your heartbeat.
I can feel it through the concrete now,
laying on the pavement,
watching the cars whir by
over me.
Nothing's gonna hurt you baby
Nothing's gonna take you from my side
As long as you're with me you'll be just fine
I think of how I held onto
your arm so tightly
as we crossed the street.
I said I was afraid
just so I could feel the way
your veins protrude and
your bones shake.
I just wanted to be
close enough
to feel your heartbeat.
I can feel it through the concrete now,
laying on the pavement,
watching the cars whir by
over me.
Nothing's gonna hurt you baby
Nothing's gonna take you from my side
We used to walk a long long way. We're far from there now.
