For as long as I recall

I've felt safe behind the wall

That I build around my heart

It was solid, it was strong

'Till the day you came along

And just tore it right apart

Am I in danger now?

I feel like a knight

Without his shield

I'm disarmed and I don't know

What to do

If love truly is a battlefield

I must wave my white flag

And kneel for you

I hope I turn out to be

The white knight you see in me

Though my shining armour's gone

But I'm scared that you'll find out

I'm not who you dreamed about

That you pack up and move on

And leave me with these ruins

I feel like a knight

Without his shield

I'm disarmed and I don't know

What to do

If love truly is a battlefield

I must wave my white flag

And kneel for you

The night you asked me to dance

You broke right through my defense

I guess you caught me off guard

This rousing feeling is new

But it's quite frightening to

Let someone get to my heart

Please handle it with care

I feel like a knight

Without his shield

I'm disarmed

And I don't know what to do

If love truly is a battlefield

I must wave my white flag

And kneel for you

Kneel for you

I gotta kneel for you

Kneel for you

Kneel for you

Kneel for you

You know I gotta kneel for you

Kneel for you

Kneel for you
