Protection - Emma Ruth Rundle

Oh heaven sends him down to me

And he’s got everything I’ll ever need

Just for 16 days, I let him tie down

The frailest part of my body

I am small but in your arms

You are colder in your heart

I am worthless in your arms

But you offer this protection no one else has given me

You just keep talking down to me

Taking all of my hair pulled back

I gave him 16 days

I let him choke out the frailest part of my body

I am small but in your arms

You are colder in your heart

I am worthless in your arms

But you offer this protection no one else has given me

Hush now, here there is no trouble

Quiet down, you know that I have got you

But I’m spinning out into a bottle

Where’s my connection to you

It’s my protection

I am small but in your arms

You are colder in your heart

I am worthless in your arms

But you offer this protection no one else has given me
