Melissa Polinar Lyrics
"Off Guard"

Everybody says youʼre amazing
Tell me what I donʼt know
What I love about you is how you make me feel
For so long I thought I was dreaming
But now that all the rainʼs gone
I can finally make out what is real
ʻCause I had my head down
But when you came around
I saw there was so much ahead
Beyond what I could see

Hey now
Thought I had it all figured out
But honey, you taught me that I could fall down
Off of this wall I built to keep you out
But honey, you caught me
Caught me off guard

I never needed a rescue
Not a dame in distress
ʻCause all I want is a love I can see through
Sweet nothings are nothing
When thereʼs absolutely nothing
For me to hold on, hold on to
'Cause I had my head down
But when you came around
I saw there was so much ahead
Beyond whatʼs in front of me

Hey now
Thought I had it all figured out
But honey, you taught me that I could fall down
Off of this wall I built to keep you out
But honey, you caught me
Caught me

Iʼm tired of pretending
Iʼm slowly comprehending
I want you... I want to be with you

Hey now
Thought I had it all figured out
But honey, you taught me that I could fall down
Off of this wall I built to keep you out
But honey, you caught me
Caught me off guard
