I Have Had To Guard This Heart of Mine

I have had to guard this heart of mine

I have had to guard 
this heart of mine

Because of all 
the hurt and pain 
that I have seen

And even though 
a part of me 

Would like to 
truly love again

It is just going to take 
me some more  time

Before I can 
allow myself 

To break down 
these 
walls of mine

That have been 
built up over time

But if I ever do get the 
chance to love again

Hopefully some day I will 

And I would only hope that 
it could be 
something that was everlasting

Because then and only then 
would I feel like 
I was on top of the world again
