Courteeners Let Down Your Guard song lyrics

With your legs a-kimbo

like a giant V sign

but your heads still buried in the sand

'cause you're too shit scared to let down your guard

And so the cuffs are clinking

as you're lying on your back wondering what's he thinking

and so you bite the pillow and swallow your pride

taking this new love stick all in your stride

Let down your guard and hold his hand

And so she builds a barrier between her love

and throws it in a carrier

Like a gravity wheel, she launches it round

she gets tired, she lets go and watches it fall to the ground

Let down your guard and hold his hand

She never got along with commitment

She'll try and ride it out before she's trying to hit them

where it hurts the most

oh she puts him down and moves onto the next one

Let down your guard and hold his hand

You're trying to ignore it

You're trying to back-door it again
