Melt Away

[Verse 1]
You come to me with a casual flow
And suddenly my defenses start to go
When you talk to me in that sensual tone
It envelopes me and I lose my self control

[Chorus]
And baby I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face I go off (I go off)
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
Maybe I could melt away in your arms

[Verse 2]
Imagining that you’re taking it slow
And so tenderly
‘Till the feeling overflows
When you look at me I go soft and cave in
And I can’t conceal that I’m slowly weakening

[Chorus]
(Baby…)
And baby I just melt away
(I fall like rain)
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face I go off (I go off)
(Every time I see your face I lose my self control)
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
(And maybe I…)
Maybe I could melt away in your arms

[Verse 1]
You come to me with a casual flow
And suddenly my defenses start to go
When you talk to me in that sensual tone
It envelopes me and I lose my self control

[Chorus]
And baby I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face I go off (I go off)
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
Maybe I could melt away in your arms

[Verse 2]
Imagining that you’re taking it slow
And so tenderly
‘Till the feeling overflows
When you look at me I go soft and cave in
And I can’t conceal that I’m slowly weakening

[Chorus]
(Baby…)
And baby I just melt away
(I fall like rain)
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face I go off (I go off)
(Every time I see your face I lose my self control)
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
(And maybe I…)
Maybe I could melt away in your arms

[Outro]
And baby I just melt away
(And I…)
Fall like rain
(And I…)
