Story Behind The Song
This what I call a love trilogy. The music and the melody are the same, but the words in each of the three songs are different and the storytelling progresses. It's like a three-act play. This is Act One.

Lyrics
VERSE
Thought I couldn't fall so soon, but I guess I was wrong, you were right
What you had in store was way, way more than anything I could fight
I thought I could resist you; you didn't seem like my type
But as time went on, I knew, I had found my delight
CHORUS
Can't believe my degree of attraction
Damn, you're quite the distraction
Whatever you're doin,' girl, don't stop
I'm givin' in, I'm givin' up
VERSE
I tried every technique I knew to put some distance between me and you
But I've quit thinkin' about stay or go; amazing what love can do
Now that you have brought me to my knees, no more resisting for me
I know we're standin' on solid ground; I'm yours for all to see
Repeat CHORUS
BRIDGE
Sometimes it's smart to let your mind lead the way
Other times it's smart to follow your heart
Repeat CHORUS
RIDE
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
I'm givin' in, I'm givin' up
