Just like the fringe on my boots You move with every step I take You walk in front of me to make sure That I don't fall and break My old heart, 'cause with you I could never Just like the leather on my saddle We get prettier with time Together in the weather, shiny on the other side Polished and changed for the better With you I'm safe With you I'm safe I'll follow you just like a shadow only closer in If you get tired and bound I'll find a way to free your hand I'll wash them clean of everything but me Sometimes you might get thirsty, so I'll catch the rain Just like the ice in your glass I'll rattle when you need a drink You'll never run dry of love or anything I'll keep you safe I'll keep you safe I'll keep you safe I keep a locket on my neck that holds your face I'll spend forever making sure I can erase Every tear you ever thought about crying You make me feel like I'm the only girl in the whole wide world I wanna hold you like a handful of diamonds and pearls That I'd guard with my life or die tryin' I'll keep you safe I'll keep you safe I'll keep you safe I'll keep you safe
