I thought that hiding all my feelings   was protecting my heart   so I never built anything   high enough to fall apart   and what I was looking for   didn't know where to start   I can't believe this is happening      The day I met you   I said welcome to the rest of my life   cause you created a new me   and all the emptiness died   I was afraid to give love another try   Now I can't believe this is happening      (chorus)   I know that this might get me in trouble   But it's time I let my defenses down   Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle   Oh I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome    Oh oh oh oh overcome   I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome   Oh I've overcome   I've overcome      Guess I'm addicted to happiness   I just can't get enough   so I decided to give up pride and   surrender my trust   I've got no choice left   but to believe in us   and finally this is happening      (chorus)   I know that this might get me in trouble   But it's time I let my defenses down   Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle   Oh I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome    Oh oh oh oh overcome   I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome   Oh I've overcome   I've overcome      I finally let myself go   I let all my guards down   baby I'm yours now   you're in control   i took the chains off my soul   and now I'm in love      (chorus)   I know that this might get me in trouble   But it's time I let my defenses down   Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle   Oh I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome    Oh oh oh oh overcome   I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome   Oh I've overcome   I've overcome      I don't care anymore   I've overcome   Oh I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome    Oh oh oh oh overcome   I've overcome   Oh oh oh oh overcome   Oh I've overcome   I've overcome
