I'm barely hanging on, losing my grip
The hold that I had so strong is starting to slip
I'm trying so hard to hold up my guard
To paint a picture like I'm so tough
But you take me in your arms
And I fall completely apart

All my defenses, all my pretenses
Baby you get to me
Through every resistance with stubborn persistence
Baby you get to me

I can't believe that it's me that spoke like this
To let my emotions run free is so dangerous
I somehow feel so safe
Then you take my breath away

With all my defenses, all my pretenses
Baby you get to me
Through every resistance with stubborn persistence
Baby you get to me

Oh yeah, Oh yeah yeah yeah
Like a light into the dark
Like an arrow to my heart

And all my defenses, all my pretenses
Baby you get to me
Through every resistance with stubborn persistence
Baby you get to me

Through kickin and screamin, reckless and reelin
Baby you get to me
With only one kiss, a moment like this
Baby you get to me

Oh yeah, oh yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeah, baby you get to me
Oh yeah, baby you get to me
Oh yeah yeah yeah, baby you get to me
