Giving You Up
Kylie Minogue Lyrics

Last night I lost my head
I acted impulsively and made a decision without thinking it through

And fell right back into your love
I went back to a relationship that I know isn't good for me

I lay intoxicated while angels circled high above
I felt euphoric and blissful, but in reality, I was doing something that wasn't good for me

Deep in a perfect moment
I was completely lost in the feeling of being with someone I'm attracted to

All at once it feels so right
Even though I know it's not good for me, the feeling is still so strong that it's hard to resist

But when I wake I see reality turn back and bite
Afterwards I realize that I've made a mistake and my actions have negative consequences

Your heartbeats ticking
You're nervous and your heart is racing

And your cool starts dripping
You're losing your composure and beginning to panic

And your tongue tied up on the phone
You're having difficulty expressing yourself and communicating

Your backbones breaking
You're starting to feel weak and powerless

And your smooth starts shaking
You're losing your confidence and becoming anxious

Like you can't stand being alone
You're afraid of being alone and will do anything to avoid it

Your cot starts rocking
Your foundation is unstable and everything in your life seems to be falling apart

Little doubts start knocking
You're starting to question everything and doubt yourself

Like the whole worlds slipping away
You feel like everything is going wrong and there's nothing you can do to stop it

Attentions killing
You're so focused on someone or something that it's taking a toll on your well-being

But the ride is thrilling
Even though it's causing you stress and pain, you can't help but find it exciting

But you can't help going again
Even though you know it's not good for you, you can't resist the feeling

What you want is what you don't know
You think you want something, but you're not sure why

Turn me on and watch your ego
You're attracted to me because it makes you feel good about yourself

What you want is what you don't need
You're pursuing something that won't bring you happiness or fulfillment

Stand up when your talking to me
Don't let your desires control you, assert yourself and be in charge of your own life

A girls got to suffer for fashion
Women are often expected to sacrifice their own well-being and happiness for what's considered fashionable or desirable

She knows what her body can do-ooh-ooh
Women are aware of their own abilities and power

She finds a man and she makes it her passion
Women are often defined by the men they're with, their relationships become the most important thing in their lives

I'm happy trying all the time with a boy like you
I'm willing to do whatever it takes to be with someone I'm attracted to, even if it's not good for me

I can't start giving you up
I'm addicted to you and can't stop myself from being drawn to you

I'm lost without you
Being without you would be unbearable, even though I know it's not good for me

Can't stop tickin' the tock
I'm fixated on you and can't stop thinking about you

I'm mad about you
I'm infatuated with you and can't help how I feel

Can't stop slipping it off
I'm giving in to temptation and doing things I know I shouldn't for the sake of being with you
