[Verse 1]
Lower my defences
And I'll take all the punches
Darling, for you, you
Vinegar my wounds now
Clean the blood off my brow
Darling, for you, you

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll duck and I'll weave
But it's all in vain
Cause when the count's ten
We'll start this again
We'll start this again

[Chorus]
And I will fall down, baby
I will fall for you
And feel my lips swell, baby
Know that I fell for you

[Verse 2]
Cut, bruised and humbled
Punch drunk, I stumble
Over to you, you
In silence I'm falling (In silence I'm falling)
The crowds are all calling
Out for you, you
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll duck and I'll weave
But it's all in vain
Cause when the count's ten
We'll start this again
We'll start this again

[Chorus]
And I will fall down, baby
I will fall for you
And feel my lips swell, baby
Know that I fell for you
They saw my gloves and shoes
And I will dance for you
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Bridge]
And I'll succumb to mercy
But you'll only use my weaknesses against me
You'll be watching, watching over
And I will hug the ground
While the light's fading out
You'll be watching, watching over
You'll be watching, watching over
You'll be watching, watching over
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll duck and I'll weave
But it's all in vain
Cause when the count's ten
We'll start this again
We'll start this again

[Chorus]
And I will fall down, baby
I will fall for you
And feel my lips swell, baby
Know that I fell for you
They saw my gloves and shoes
And I will dance for you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh
