Berlin Irving My Defenses Are Down Lyrics

My Defenses Are Down Lyrics

I've had my way with so many girls 
And it was lots of fun
My system was to know many girls
'Twould keep me safe from one
I find it can't be done

My defenses are down
She's broken my resistance
And I don't know where I am
I went into the fight like a lion
But I came out like a lamb

My defenses are down
She's got me where she wants me
And I can't escape nohow
I could speak to my heart when it weakened
But my heart won't listen now

Like a toothless, clawless tiger
Like an organ grinder's bear
Like a knight without his armor
Like Samson without his hair

My defenses are down
I might as well surrender 
For the battle can't be won
But I must confess that I like it
So there's nothing to be done
Yes, I must confess that I like it
Being mis'rable is gonna be fun
