Once
Once I fell in love
I believed by my pounding heart
But the pounding stayed right above
Not passing by my heart's inner guard.
Once I fell in love
As my heart was but a rock
Love was frail like a dove
It broke its delicate neck.
Once I fell in love
I used to be afraid of what might come off
feared balm as well as blade.
For you, I let down my guard,
Lay in your hands my pounding heart.
