Alexandra Burke - Overcome lyrics

Ooh ooh ooh ooh aah-aah

If you walk with your head down
You can count every step you take
I know every place I've been now
I can count every mistake

I've been hurt so many times before
Almost forgotten how to dream
All that I was running from
Is all I need to save me

I couldn't let you in my heart
But now my defenses all fall apart (Oh oh oh)
Just when I thought I'd given up
I have overcome
And now I can let you go, oh no
You show me something that I've never known
(Never known) and finally I found the one
I have overcome

Aah-aah (I have overcome)

You can never see it coming
There's always that one you can't count now
Who keeps on believing?
Nothing's gonna stop me now

I've been hurt so many times before
Almost forgotten how to dream
All that I was running from
Is all I need to save me

I couldn't let you in my heart (Oh)
But now my defenses all fall apart
(All fall apart)
Just when I thought I'd given up
I have overcome
And now I can let you go (I can't let you go)
You show me something that I've never known
(Never known)
And finally I found the one (I found the one)
I have overcome

I'm not running anymore
'Cause now there's nothing left
To hold me down
Some things are worth fighting for
I see it all, it's waiting for me now

I couldn't let you in my heart
But now my defenses all fall apart
(All fall apart)
Just when I thought I'd given up
I have overcome
And now I can let you go (I can't let you go)
You show me something that I've never known
(Never known)
And finally I found the one (Ooh ooh)
I have overcome
I couldn't let you in my heart
But now my defenses all fall apart
(Fall apart)
Just when I thought I'd given up
(I'd given up, I'd given up) i have overcome
And now I can let you go, oh no
You show me something that I've never known
(Never known) and finally I found the one
I have overcome
