Shocked

(album: Out Of My Hands - 1995)

Love is a crutch for the easily moved
A cliché, a record that's stuck in the same groove
Like a painting that hangs on a museum wall
Love is a relic, a concept that doesn't mean anything at all
So what's my excuse
When I tremble at the sight of you
How do I explain
When all my defenses are falling like rain I get
Shocked when I feel this feeling
All my senses reeling
Shocked because I'm falling in love
That's the last thing I suspect my heart of
I get shocked
I'm tired, I'm wired, I can't even sleep
I can't get control of a feeling that goes this deep
Irresistible impulses flooding my brain
My head's overflowing with all these emotions
My heart just can't contain
So what do I do
I can think of nothing else but you
So what do I say
When all my defenses are melting away, I get
Shocked when I feel this feeling
All my senses reeling
Shocked because I'm falling in love
That's the last thing I suspect my heart of
I get shocked
I felt at home with this distance
I've tried to maintain
But love's breaking my resistance
And calling me out from behind my own pain
Shocked when I feel this feeling
All my senses reeling
Shocked because I'm so much in love
That's the last thing I suspect my heart of
I get shocked
