Lyrics: Protect My Heart
Album: Tasty
Artist: Kelis
 

Here we go
Puerto Rico

I gotta protect my heart
I gotta protect my heart

You were the highlight of the spot
but you wouldn’t tell me your name
You were like, Girl are you ready or not?
to dance the entire night away

You were like, Let me hold ya girl
You were sayin, Let me touch ya girl
You were sayin, Let me squeeze ya girl
You turned me on. Let me f*** ya girl

See, when I first got here, I knew love barely
I gotta protect my heart
Then ya come changin things, I knew that’s unfair, babe
I gotta protect my heart

The room was oh so hot
If you won’t move, then move out of the way
I’m giving it all I got
but at the same time trying to maintain

You were like, Let me hold ya girl
You were sayin, Let me touch ya girl
You were sayin, Let me squeeze ya girl
You turned me on. Let me f*** ya girl

See, when I first got here, I knew love barely
I gotta protect my heart
Then ya come changin things, I knew that’s unfair, babe
I gotta protect my heart
Never been touched by the way someone moves
and that scares me
I gotta protect my heart
If Cupid knew you were comin, he shoulda prepared me
I gotta protect my heart

I I I I just I just, I just need to
Walk away from the door
But I could feel myself reversing
I never gave in before
See I guess that’s what happened when

You were like, Let me hold ya girl
You were sayin, Let me touch ya girl
You were sayin, Let me squeeze ya girl
You turned me on. Let me f*** ya girl

See, when I first got here, I knew love barely
I gotta protect my heart
Then ya come changin things, I knew that’s unfair, babe
I gotta protect my heart
Never been touched by the way someone moves
and that scares me
I gotta protect my heart
If Cupid knew you were comin, he shoulda prepared me
I gotta protect my heart

Break it down
See, when I first got here, I knew love barely
I gotta protect my heart
Then ya come changin things, I knew that’s unfair, babe
I gotta protect my heart
