Testo di PROTECTOR (feat. Rumi Carter)

Mom, can I hear the lullaby, please? And there I was, tangled up in marigold We were listening to the reverend children singin' (Sing, sing, sing, sing) (yeah) Humming low as the garden river flows While the August light becomes a golden evenin' (evenin') (yeah) And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way Born to be a protector, mm Even though I know some day you're gonna shine on your own I will be your projector, mm, mm-hm An apricot picked right off a given tree I gave water to the soil and now it feeds me, yeah (yeah) And there you are, shaded underneath it all I feel proud of who I am, because you need me, yeah (yeah) And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way Born to be a protector-tor, mm Even though I know some day you're gonna shine on your own I will be your projector, mm, mm-hm And even though I know some day you're gonna shine on your own I will be your projector, projector, projector I first saw your face in your father's gaze There's a long line of hands carryin' your name, mm Liftin' you up, so you will be raised Even though I know some day you're gonna shine on your own I will be your projector, yeah, yeah And even though I know some day you're gonna shine on your own I will be your protector, born to be a protector
