I never been who I wanted to be I never felt completely free No one's ever had all of me Or made me feel so beautiful and sexy Now I'm flying like an airplane Now I'm riding on the open range Now I'm living out my destiny I know the truth, I got it all in you and me Oh, I'm giving myself over to you Body and soul I'm giving it over I'm giving myself over to you now Like a brand new day Now you and I, we're the face of fame Ain't nobody got nothing to say, no And from my feelings I never have to run away No more 'Cause he's here Holding me tight Every day and night Oh baby Can't you see? I don't wanna be without you anymore Oh, I'm giving myself over to you Body and soul I'm giving it over I'm giving myself over to you Oh, I'm giving myself over to you Body and soul I'm giving it over I'm giving myself over to you For the first time I can stand in front of someone Finally I can be me I can just let my love spill over I can cry I don't have to lie I can finally let someone all the way inside All the way All they way All the way Handing myself over to you Body and soul I'm giving it over I'm giving myself over to you I'm giving myself over to you Body and soul I'm giving it over I'm giving myself over to you You know it's the right time I know it's the right night I know it's the right life I know you're the right man I know I'm the right girl Come on now feel it You feel it? I'm ready to give it over to you Body and soul I'm giving it over (I'm giving it over) I'm giving myself over to you now All they way All the way I've never loved nobody else
