Songtext Overcome Jordin Sparks

Overcome

I thought that hiding all my feelings

was protecting my heart

so I never built anything

high enough to fall apart

and what I was looking for

didn't know where to start

I can't believe this is happening

The day I met you

I said welcome to the rest of my life

cause you created a new me

and all the emptiness died

I was afraid to give love another try

Oh I can't believe this is happening

(chorus)

I know that this might get me in trouble

But it's time I let my defences down

Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle

Oh I'll overcome

I'll overcome

Guess I'm addicted to happiness

I just can't get enough

so I decided to give a try and

surrender my trust

I've got no choice left

but to believe in us

and finally this is happening

(chorus)

I know that this might get me in trouble

But it's time I let my defences down

Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle

Oh I'll overcome

I'll overcome

I finally let myself go

I let all my guards down

baby I'm yours now

you're in control

at the chains off my soul

and now I'm in love

(chorus)

I know that this might get me in trouble

But it's time I let my defences down

Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle

Oh I'll overcome

I'll overcome

I don't care anymore

I'll overcome

I've overcome
