You could have kissed me Like this wasn't gonna last Kept me from saying Something I'll never take back You could've held me like there was no chance of me waking up where I am You could have stopped short of every dream I ever had So help me girl You've gone too far It's way too late To save my heart The way it feels Each time we touch I know I've never been so loved And I can't help myself So help me girl You had to be there when that old sun came up Making last night feel like a vision of things yet to come You just had to hold me like nobody else Now look what you've gone and done You had to love me 'Til I just can't get enough So help me girl You've gone too far It's way too late Too save my heart The way it's feel Each time we touch I know I've never been so loved And I can't help myself So help me girl And I can't help myself So help me girl
