Admit Defeat Lyrics

I know it's been a week
I know it's not been long
But I'm already past the point of no return
I've got you on a loop
I've got you in my head
A chemical reaction, a flashback to your bed

Waiting for your call
I can feel my body shaking
Calm before the storm
Let it take me, I embrace it

You stirred somethin' in me
I admit defeat
Won't be thinking 'bout
Anything at all tonight, but

You, oh, oh
Anything at all, but
You, oh, oh
Anything at all, but you

So tell me when you're out
And tell me where to go
Of course, you have my body but now you've got my soul
You drive me to distraction
Run me off the road
You crash into my mind, I'm ready to explode

Waiting for your call
I can feel my body shaking
Calm before the storm
Let it take me, I embrace it

You stirred somethin' in me
I admit defeat
Won't be thinking 'bout
Anything at all tonight, so
Wrap yourself 'round me
I admit defeat
Won't be thinking 'bout
Anything at all tonight, but

You, oh, oh
Anything at all, but
You, oh, oh
Anything at all, 'cause

You're the only voice in my head
I can hear you speaking
Louder than I'm thinking
Hang on every word that you said
Drive me to distraction
Drive me to distraction

You're the only voice in my head
I can hear you speaking
Louder than I'm thinking
Hang on every word that you said
Drive me to distraction
Drive me to distraction, you

Stirred somethin' in me
I admit defeat
Won't be thinking 'bout
Anything at all tonight, so
Wrap yourself 'round me
I admit defeat
Won't be thinking 'bout
Anything at all tonight, but

You, oh, oh
Anything at all, but
You, oh, oh
Anything at all, but you

Anything at all, but you
Anything at all, but you

What is the Meaning of Admit Defeat?

Diving into the depths of emotional surrender, this track captures the essence of succumbing to an overpowering love. The lyrics speak of a protagonist who's lost in thoughts of their beloved, to the point where they can think of nothing else. This person has not only captivated their heart but also their mind and soul. They're waiting for a call, yearning for connection, and even their body physically reacts to this intense longing. The repeating line "I admit defeat" suggests that they've accepted this overwhelming infatuation, even if it leads them to distraction or makes them lose control. They embrace this feeling wholeheartedly, indicating a sense of vulnerability and deep affection towards their partner. It's a beautiful portrayal of love's power to consume us completely.
