Armour Lyrics - Blue Rodeo

She took everything she owned 

threw it out in the rain 

walked away from that life she won't go back again 

had enough of people's lies enough of their blame 

she made a promise to herself she won't get fooled again 

Don't know why things come to me and why they disappear 

I only know that living changed when she got here 

I reached out my hand wiped the rain from her face 

the look she gave me stopped me cold held me in my place 

When I look into her eyes growing wild 

what I see is such a wounded child 

No matter what you're hiding 

what you want to keep inside you 

I am hiding too 

and we'll take a step somehow 

lay down your armour now 

and I'll come to you 

I know a fall is coming but it hasn't happened yet 

can't believe what I keep inside and what I can't forget 

the sun paints the evening sky and then it's gone 

I can't say I can save you but I swear I won't leave you alone 

Every night I listen to the silence in your heart 

I never want to see you that torn apart 

No matter what you're hiding 

what you want to keep inside you 

I've been hiding too 

and we'll take a step somehow 

lay down your armour now 

I'll come to you 

come to you 

come to you
