Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You come to me with a casual flow
And suddenly, my defenses start to go
When you talk to me in that sensual tone
It envelopes me, and I lose my self-control
[Chorus]
And, baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
Maybe I could melt away in your arms
[Verse 2]
Imagining that you're taking it slow
And so tenderly, till the feeling overflows
When you look at me, I go soft and cave in
And I can't conceal that I'm slowly weakening
[Chorus]
And, baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
Maybe I could melt away in your arms
[Bridge]
You and me, in a cloud of reverie
Spin around inside my head unendingly
Thoughts run wild as I sit and rhapsodize
Pretty pictures of what I'd do if you were mine
[Chorus]
Baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
Maybe I could melt away in your arms
[Chorus]
And, baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off
I just want to break it down
Anytime you come around
Maybe I could melt away in your arms
[Outro]
And, baby, I just melt away
