Lyrics
Helpless
(c) 2009 Lisa Horan, Stephen Joseph Antonelli
You just seem to have a gift
For being at the right place at the right time
I feel my mind begin to drift
The very minute that you look into my eyes
Pre-Chorus
I wasn't looking for someone
But you're something I can't outrun
Chorus
You overwhelm me
Like a rush that takes my breath away
You mystify me
Like a frenzy that I can't tame
I'm helpless, helpless
So I try to play it strong
And make a promise that you won't get to me next time
Somehow my plans turn out all wrong
And I can barely keep myself from falling out of line
Pre-chorus
Longing devours my repression
Desire overpowers my discretion
Chorus
You overwhelm me
Like a rush that takes my breath away
You mystify me
Like a frenzy that I can't tame
I'm helpless, helpless
Bridge
You've got a way about you
You've got a way
And I just can't breathe without you
All I can say
Chorus 2
You overwhelm me
Like a rush that takes my breath away
You mystify me
Like a frenzy that I can't tame
I'm helpless, helpless
You overtake me
Like an addiction that I can't break
You hypnotize me
Like a trance that I can't escape
I'm helpless, I'm helpless
