I thought that hiding all my feelings
Was protecting my heart
So I never built anything high enough to fall apart (?)
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 the struggle
I've overcome (overcome, overcome)
I've overcome (overcome), I've overcome

Guess I'm addicted to happiness
I just can't give it up
So I decided to give up right 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 the struggle
I've overcome (overcome, overcome)
I've overcome (overcome, yeah), I've overcome

I finally let myself go
I let all my guards down, baby I'm yours now
Your in control, I took the chains off my soul
And now I'm in love
Yeah

Chorus:
I know that this might get me in trouble
But it's time I let my defenses down (gonna let them down)
'Cause I am no longer afraid of the struggle (no, no)
I've overcome (overcome, overcome), I've don't care anymore
I've overcome (overcome, yeah), I've overcome
