Puttin my defences up
Cause I don`t wanna fall in love
If I ever did that
I think I'd have a heart attack

Never put my love out on the line
Never said yes to the right guy
Never had trouble getting what I want
But when it comes to you
I`m never good enough

When I don`t care
I can play `m like a Ken doll
Won`t wash my hair
Don`t make `m bounce like a basketball

But you
Make me wanna act like a girl
Paint my nails and wear high heels
Yes you, make me so nervous that
I just can hold your hands

You make me glow
But I cover up
Won`t i let it show

So I'm putting my defences up
Cause I don`t wanna fall in love
If I ever did that
I think I'd have a heart attack(x3)

Never break a sweat for the other guys
When you come around I get paralyzed
And every time I try to be myself
It comes out wrong like a cry for help

It`s just not fair
Pain`s more trouble than all is worth
I gasp for air
It feels so good but you know it hurts

But you
Make me wanna act like a girl
Paint my nails and wear perfume
For you, make me so nervous that
I just can hold your hands

You make me glow
But I cover up
Won`t I let it show

So I'm putting my defences up
Cause I don`t wanna fall in love
If I ever did that
I think I'd have a heart attack(x3)


The feeling got lost in my lungs
They`re burning I`d rather be numb
Yeah, there`s no one else to blame

So scared I take off and run
I`m flying too close to the sun
And I`ll burst into flames

You make me glow
But I cover up
Won`t let it show

So I'm putting my defences up
Cause I don`t wanna fall in love
If I ever did that
I think I'd have a heart attack (x5)
