There's no bullet proof vest There's no barbed wire fence There's no castle walls that could keep me from you There's no guards or gates That could change my fate Because I'll push on through until I get to you You can fire away with your cannons raised You can sink my ships until I'm barely holding on You can seize my ranks And push me out onto a wooden plank But I'll escape and swim right back to you So Katie, You're a simple girl Try not to make this so hard And Katie, You're the one I need But you keep trying to shake me off your sleeve Katie I will climb each rung that you have hung I'll untangle webs that you have spun I'll brave the darkest dungeons of your heart You can slip away through fire escapes And run off into hidden caves But someday you'll thank me for what I've done Yeah someday you'll realize that I am the one So Katie, You're a simple girl Try not to make this so hard And Katie, You're the one I need But you keep trying to shake me off your sleeve Katie And even if your troops come in Retrieve the flag and take the win The flame inside my chest will not resign You can tie a rope around my throat And drop the plank until I choke Your men will celebrate with beer and wine But you'll feel a sharp and sudden pain As you watch my colors fade Katie, You're a simple girl Try not to make this so hard And Katie, You're the one I need But you keep trying to shake me off your sleeve Katie
