Can not hold you
Afraid to touch you
Can not hurt you
Afraid to love you

Why can you not let me go?
You know I can not feel
I should have been left alone
For the love I give isn't real

I will be the sword that you need
For any battle that comes you way
I will be the shield at your feet
There to protect you any day

But I won't be that damsel in distress
Waiting for you in a long velvet dress
Locked up in the highest tower
Awaiting her love this very hour
Who ever this princess may be
She will not be me

This cold-hearted curse
Could it get any worse?
I'd die not to hurt you
But I'd cry not to love you
I can't give you what you deserve
But you think you'll find the cure

I will be your stallion when you need to flee
Ready to go whenever you call my name
I will be the extra hand you need
To guide you though the land that we stray

But I won't be that damsel in distress
Waiting for you in a long velvet dress
Locked up in the highest tower
Awaiting her love this very hour
Who ever this princess may be
She will not be me

Grab me by my clothes
And hold me forever close
Give me a kiss to last
But I cannot feel beyond that

Can not hold you
Afraid to touch you
Can not hurt you
Afraid to love you

Why can you not let me go?
You know I can not feel
I should have been left alone
For the love I give isn%u2019t real

This is my curse
A cruel joke played on me first
I devoted my life
To protect the souls I keep close to mine
And at a cost
My feel for love was lost

So I won't be that damsel in distress
Waiting for you in a long velvet dress
Locked up in the highest tower
Awaiting her love this very hour
And who ever this princess may be
She will not be me
