Irving Berlin - My Defenses Are Down (feat. Bruce Yarnell) lyrics

[Verse:] I've had my way with so many girls And it was lots of fun My system was to know many girls 'Twould keep me safe from one I find it can't be done [1st refrain:] My defenses are down She's broken my resistance And I don't know where I am I went into the fight like a lion But I came out like a lamb My defenses are down She's got me where she wants me And I can't escape no how I could speak to my heart when it wakened But my heart won't listen now Like a toothless, clawless tiger Like an organ grinder's bear Like a knight without his armor Like Samson without his hair My defenses are down I might as well surrender For the battle can't be won But I must confess that I like it So there's nothing to be done Yes, I must confess that I like it Being mis'rable is gonna be fun [2nd refrain:] My defenses are down -She's broken his resistance -And he's in an awful jam I went into the fight like a lion -But you came out like a lamb My defenses are down -She's got you where she wants you -And you can't escape no how I could speak to my heart when it wakened -But your heart won't listen now Like a toothless, clawless tiger Like an organ grinder's bear Like a knight without his armor Like Samson without his hair My defenses are down -You might as well surrender -For the battle can't be won But I must confess that I like it So there's nothing to be done -Yes, you must confess that you like it Being mis'rable Is gonna be fun
