This girl I know needs some shelter 
She don't believe anyone can help her 
She's doing so much harm 
Doing so much damage 
 
But you don't want to get involved 
You tell her she can manage 
And you can't change the way she feels 
But you could put your arms around her 
 
I know you want to live yourself 
But could you forgive yourself 
If you left her just the way you found her 
 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
 
You're a boy and I'm a girl 
But you know you can lean on me 
And I don't have no fear 
I'll take on any man here 
Who says that's not the way it should be 
 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
 
She's a girl and you're a boy 
Sometimes you look so small, you look so small 
I've got a baby of your own 
When your baby's grown, she'll be the one 
To catch you when you fall 
 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
 
You're a girl and I'm a boy 
You're a girl and I'm a boy yeah 
You're a girl and I'm a boy 
You're a girl and I'm a boy hey 
 
Sometimes you look so small, you need some shelter 
Just runnin' round and round, helter skelter 
And I've leaned on me for years now you can lean on me 
And that's more than love, that's the way it should be 
Now I can't change the way you think 
 
But I can put my arms around you 
That's just part of the deal 
That's the way I feel 
I put my arms around you 
 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
I stand in front of you 
I'll take the force of the blow, protection 
 
You're a boy and I'm a girl 
You're a boy and I'm a girl, hey 
You're a boy and I'm a girl 
You're a boy and I'm a girl, yeah
