When I'm with you I shake inside My heart's all tangled up My tongue is tied it's crazy Can't walk, can't talk, can't eat, can't sleep Oh, I'm in love, oh I'm in deep 'cause baby With a kiss you can strip me defenseless With a touch I completely lose control 'Til all that's left of my strength is a memory, whoa I get weak when I look at you Weak when we touch I can't speak when I look in your eyes I get weak when you're next to me Weak from this love I can't speak when I look in your eyes I get weak Convincing eyes, persuasive lips The helpless heart just can't resist their power You know you've got a hold over me You know you've got me where I want to be 'cause lover Like a wave you keep pulling me under How I'll ever get out of this I don't know I just know there's just no way to fight it, whao I get weak when I look at you Weak when we touch I can't speak when I look in your eyes I get weak when you're next to me Weak from this love I'm in deep when I look in your eyes I get weak I get weak I get weak Just a kiss you can strip me defenseless Just a touch I completely lose control 'Til all that's left of my strength is a memory, whoa I get weak when I look at you Weak when we touch I can't speak when I look in your eyes I get weak when you're next to me Weak from this love I can't speak when I look in your eyes I get weak I get weak I get weak
