Helpless When She Smiles
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She keeps her secrets in her eyes
She wraps the truth inside her lies
Just when I can't say what she's done to me
She comes to me and leads me back to paradise
She's so hard to hold
But I can't let go
I'm a house of cards in a hurricane
A reckless ride in the pouring rain
She cuts me and the pain
Is all I wanna feel
She dances away just like a child
She drives me crazy, drives me wild
But I'm helpless when she smiles
(Oh, when she smiles)
She smiles
Maybe I'd fight it if I could (maybe I'd fight it if I could)
It hurts so bad, but feels so good
She opens up just like a rose to me, when she's close to me
Anything she'd ask me to, I would
It's out of control
But I can't let go
I'm a house of cards in a hurricane
A reckless ride in the pouring rain
She cuts me and the pain
Is all I wanna feel
She dances away just like a child
She drives me crazy, drives me wild
But I'm helpless when she smiles
Oh, yeah, when she smiles
When she looks at me (when she looks at me)
I get so weak
I'm a house of cards in a hurricane
A reckless ride in the pouring rain
She cuts me and the pain
Is all I wanna feel
She dances away just like a child
She drives me crazy, drives me wild
But I'm helpless when she smiles (oh, when she smiles)
When she smiles (she smiles)
When she smiles (oh, when she smiles)
When she smiles
