She's gentle to the touch

She's everything head first

So happy to be causing trouble Sometimes the pressure gets too much

And you think she's going to burst

And shatter like a Christmas bubble I'll be there when the world

Is coming down upon her

When she's scared I'll be there

Fighting in her corner She cries when she's alone

For all life's little knocks

Everything is supposed to make us tougher Thinking it doesn't really show

But I know how she hurts

And I can't bare to see her suffer I'll be there when the world

Is coming down upon her

When she's scared I'll be there

Fighting in her corner I'll be there when the world

Is closing to surround her

In the air, as she falls

With my arms around her Holding on, I'm looking out

For her thin skin

Because she's everything

And I don't think she knows She's such a gentle touch

She's too much, a gentle touch She likes to catch the sun

Plays with it like a ball

And never mind whatever keeps it burning Someday she might just be the one

Whose going to save us all

If this apocalypse is coming I'll be there when the world

Is coming down upon her

When she's scared I'll be there

Fighting in her corner I'll be there when the world

Is closing to surround her

In the air as she falls

With my arms around her Holding on, I'm looking out

For her thin skin

Because she's everything

But I don't think she knows I don't think she knows

I don't think she knows

(She's such a gentle touch)

I don't think she knows

(she's too much, a gentle touch)
