lyrics
Oh, baby it's so hard for me to hold back
All the feeling in my heart about to burst out
All I wanna do is tell you and scream it out loud
But I know it's too soon to talk like that

(chorus)
Oh, I can't help it
I can't help it

No, I can't help it when you're around
Every bit of my cool just falls to the ground
It's not so much what you do that drives me wild
I'm just so into you I can't get out

(chorus)
Oh I can't help it
I can't help it
No I can't help it
I can't help it, no no no

I'm still grooming and pacing before we go out
Making sure everything's in place so it all works out
I don't know what I'd do if your love passed me by
My heart's consumed with this empty desire

(chorus)
Oh I can't help it
I can't help it
No I can't help it
I can't help it
