They may try to plan my life as people often do
But they can't change the way I feel for you
They say a rich young love could better play the part
But they can't take your love from my heart

They say I should forget you and find somebody new
Why can't they see you're meant for me and no one else could ever do
So while they plan their next attack let's really play it smart
And build a wall of defence around our hearts

--- Instrumental ---

They have tried to use your past to prove you'd be untrue
But they can't wreck my trust and faith in you
They say you're reckless kind would never get a start
But they can't take your love from my heart

They say I should forget you and find somebody new
Why can't they see you're meant for me and no one else could ever do
So while they plan their next attack let's really play it smart
And build a wall of defence around our hearts
