I thought that hiding all my feelings
Was protecting my heart
So I never built anything
High enough to fall apart
And what I was looking for
Didn't know where to start
I can't believe this is happening
The day I met you
I said welcome to the rest of my life
Cause you created a new me
And all the emptiness died
I was afraid to give love another try
Now I can't believe this is happening
I know that this might get me in trouble
But it's time I let my defenses down
Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle
Oh I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh I've overcome
I've overcome [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/j/jordin_sparks/overcome.html ]
Guess I'm addicted to happiness
I just can't get enough
So I decided to give up pride and
Surrender my trust
I've got no choice left
But to believe in us
And finally this is happening
I know that this might get me in trouble
But it's time I let my defenses down
Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle
Oh I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh I've overcome
I've overcome
I finally let myself go
I let all my guards down
Baby, I'm yours now
You're in control
I took the chains off my soul
And now I'm in love
I know that this might get me in trouble
But it's time I let my defenses down
Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle
Oh I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh I've overcome
I've overcome
I thought that hiding all my feelings
was protecting my heart
so i never built anything
high enough to fall apart
and what i was looking for
