Give It Up
(Gloria Estefan &) The Miami Sound Machine Lyrics

There's no wrong and no right
In the situation you're in, there are no definite rules or boundaries to follow.

In the heat of the night you stop thinking
When you're in an intense moment, reason and logic go out the window.

You don't care anymore
You're no longer worried about the consequences of your actions.

Throw all doubt out the door
Get rid of any hesitations or uncertainties.

And you let go
Allow yourself to be free from any inhibitions holding you back.

You may try to fight back by ignoring the fact
You might try to resist temptation by denying that it exists.

That you want it
But deep down, you know that you desire it.

But it's harder each day
As time goes on, it becomes increasingly difficult to resist.

No more games you can play to avoid it
You've exhausted all possible tactics to ignore or evade it.

You may think you're cool and collected
You may believe that you have control over your emotions and actions.

Obeying all the rules
Following all expectations and social norms.

But when someone's blinding your senses
When you're attracted to someone to the point that your judgment is clouded.

You give it up and fall in love
You surrender to your feelings and allow yourself to fall in love.

Feel your heart beating fast
Your heart rate increases due to feelings of excitement or nervousness.

Want this moment to last you forever
You wish that this experience could go on forever and not end.

Feel your throat getting dry
You become anxious or overwhelmed to the point where your throat feels dry.

When you find that it's now or it's never
When you realize that this moment is the opportunity to act on your feelings or never do so.

Since you're feeling confused
Because you're uncertain or indecisive about what to do next.

You no longer can choose and you weaken
You've lost the ability to make a decision and become vulnerable.

Then you finally give in to this urge from within
You succumb to the inner desire that you've been trying to resist.

And it happens
The event or experience that you've been anticipating finally occurs.

Fall in love
A repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the primary message of the song.

You're gonna fall in love
A direct statement assuring that love is inevitable.
