(Puttin' my defenses up)

('Cause I don't wanna fall in love)

(If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack)

Never put my love out on the line

Never said "yes" to the right guy

Never had trouble getting what I want

But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough

When I don't care

I can play 'em like a Ken doll

Won't wash my hair

Then make 'em bounce like a basketball

But you make me wanna act like a girl

Paint my nails and wear high heels

Yes, you, make me so nervous

That I just can't hold your hand

You make me glow

But I cover up, won't let it show

So I'm puttin' my defenses up (Up)

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love (Love)

If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack

I think I'd have a heart attack

I think I'd have a heart attack

Never break a sweat for the other guys

When you come around, I get paralyzed

And every time I try to be myself

It comes out wrong, like a cry for help

It's just not fair

Pain's more trouble than love is worth

I gasp for air

It feels so good, but you know it hurts

But you make me wanna act like a girl

Paint my nails and wear perfume

For you, make me so nervous

That I just can't hold your hand

You make me glow

But I cover up, won't let it show

So I'm puttin' my defenses up (Up)

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love (Love)

If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack

I think I'd have a heart attack

I think I'd have a heart attack

The feelings got lost in my lungs

They're burning, I'd rather be numb (I'd rather be numb)

And there's no one else to blame (No one else to blame)

So scared, I take off and I run

I'm flyin' too close to the sun

And I burst into flames (Flames, flames)

You make me glow

But I cover up, won't let it show

So I'm puttin' my defenses up (Up)

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love (Love)

If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack, yeah

I think I'd have a heart attack (Heart attack)

I think I'd have a heart attack-tack (Oh, I think I'd have a heart attack)

I think I'd have a heart attack

I think I'd have a heart attack
