[Chorus:] br Cover up br With loving protection br Guard your love br In every direction br Don't give up br For fear of rejection br Stand your ground and voice an objection br br [Verse 1:] br Run away my sister and brother br Be afraid of love when the lover br Tries to read the book by the cover br Wrapped up in the arms of another br br [Chorus] br br Cover up prolonging the yearning br Just ahead the fires are burning br Swim for shore the tides are now turning br Love the ones you love with your learning br br [Chorus] br br Look ahead the futures depending br On the brave to now start defending br Tell the world the message you're sending br We don't need an unhappy ending br br [Chorus] br br Got to be safe if you want to be free br To sit in the shade of the family tree br br [Verse 1] br br [Chorus] br br Got to be safe if you want to be free br To sit in the shade of the family tree
