How Did I Get Here?

You, hey
(How did I get here)
How did I ever fall, my baby, mmm
(How did I get here)
(Can you groove, ooh yeah)
Aw yeah (Hey yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ooh, yeah

1ST VERSE:
I’ve played that love game
And I’ve lost many times
My favorite line became ”Let’s be friends”
I thought nothing could change my mind, but you said,
(“I know you’ve been hurt and I’m so sorry”)
“But I’m here”
“Ooh, I wanna make it better”
(“But please, baby please, don’t take it out on me”)
And I wondered…how did I ever get here?

HOOK:
I promised I’d never fall in love again
Silly me, this game of love I can’t win
Standing here, looking at you, I’m thinking
How did I get here?
Could it be your touch, or the way you know what’s missing
I’m helpless, because love’s what this is
It’s who you are
Everything you do, I’m twisted
How did I get here?

2ND VERSE:
I just can’t understand why love is pickin’ on me
It’s here in my face (my face)
Why’d you have to be so sweet to me?
Now baby, there’s no hiding place
(You said, “I know just what you need”)
Ooh, I was tired, and then you came and changed my life (“Baby, give me a chance, I’ll set you free”)
Oh, you set me free, but how in the world did I ever?

HOOK (2X)

BRIDGE:
Oh (Oh) I don’t care what they say (what they say)
There’s somebody out there waitin’ for you (ooh)
No need to stand in the way (in the way)
You can’t run away from love

BREAKDOWN:
You’re makin’ it hard, baby (baby) Ooh
How did I get here and fall in love with you like this?
(How did I get here, ooh baby
How did I get here, so tell me darlin’)
(Repeat)

HOOK:

I give up, I can’t win
You’ve got me so in love with you (baby)
It’s over (it’s over), silly me
Thought I could fight it, but what can I do (do, do)
Against your touch, your kiss, your body (your body)
Your mind, your soul, your heart (your heart)
I’m helpless in your arms, by your side
I just wanna break down and cry
Tell me how did I, I get here (get here)
I thought I promised I’d never fall in love again (again)
Love’s what this is (this is), I can’t resist (ooh)
I can’t control this
But I’m here (I’m here)
