Plated Armour

You're so afraid to love
And let your feelings show,
You're so afraid to love
Why can't you just let go?

You keep plated armour
Wrapped around your heart
And the chain goes on forever
Keeping us apart.

Why deny what you keep hidden,
Why hide away your tears,
Why lie alone in bed at night
Surrounded by endless fears?

If you just hold my hand
And walk along with me
I'll be your plated armour
And sunshine you will see.

Don't be afraid my darling
My love will keep us warm
And together, forever,
We will ride out every storm.
