Louis Tomlinson - Defenceless Lyrics






I come runnin' to you
Like a moth into flame
You tell me "Take it easy"
But it's easier to say
Wish I didn't need so much of you
I hate to say, but I do
We're sleeping on our problems
And we'll solve them in our dreams
Wake up early mornin'
And they're still under the sheets
I'm lost in my head
I'm spinning again
Tryin' to find more to say to you

Been up all night
All night but you know my lines
But it's only the truth
Been up all night
Not sure how to say this right
Got so much to lose

Never been so defenceless
Never been so defenceless (Oh woah)
You just keep on building up your fences (Oh woah)
But I've never been so defenceless (Oh woah)
(Oh woah, oh woah)
(Oh woah, oh woah)
(Oh woah, oh woah)

You don't have to keep on being strong
For me and you
Acting like you feel no pain
You know I know you do
And you can't get inside
When you're lost in your pride
You don't have a thing to prove

Been up all night
All night but you know my lines
But it's only the truth
Been up all night
Not sure how to say this right
Got so much to lose

Never been so defenceless
Never been so defenceless (Oh woah)
You just keep on building up your fences (Oh woah)
But I've never been so defenceless (Oh woah)
(Oh woah, oh woah)

I'm not asking too much
Just want to be loved
(Don't you be so defensive)
I'm too tired to be tough
Just wanna be loved by you

Never been so defenceless
Never been so defenceless
You just keep on building up your fences
But I've never been so defenceless (Oh woah)
(Oh woah, oh woah)

You just keep on building up your fences (Oh woah)
But I've never been so defenceless (Oh woah)

    Necesito la version studio u otro en vivo porque ya estoy hasta el pico del "hola looser"

  51. L.... D....

    Love you Louis Tomlinson👏👏❤💙

  52. D.... L....

    Que si no la pones en el álbum, me mató. Ya estás avisado chaparro peleonero

  53. N.... S....

    Louis she better be on the album or i'm gonna be super mad! This so is SO good and deserves a spot. Pleeeaaassseee

    N.... S....

    Update: she is gonna be on the album and I'm SO happy about it!!!' And I'm seeing him live so I'll hear this live 😍

  54. P.... G....

    Gaelle (sorry I only have an English keyboard), if this is really not on the album 😥 you better not ever delete this masterpiece, I need access to it 24/7

    P.... G....

    Unless Louis himself tells me to delete, I’m never taking it down 💙

    P.... G....

    Hahaha right?! I agree ☝🏼 I love this performance!!!

  55. D.... ....

    People are scared this won’t be on Walls cause it hasn’t been registered, but guys remember that Louis said he’s still listening to the masters and approving things. He probably hasn’t approved of the master for Defenseless yet cause he wants to perfect it. It’ll be on there. It’s a bop ☺️

  56. i.... ....

    what camera did you use?

    i.... ....

    A canon powershot sx720 hs

  57. O.... F....

    esta cancion sigue siendo recontra corta venas y necesito ya walls

  58. K.... W....

    I love this song.

  59. M.... J....

    This feels like a self discovery song 🤔🤔

  60. V.... S....

    How Louis dare to say that Defenceless won’t be on the album?!!!! It’s my favorite song 😭 just his high notes and LYRICS, if on January 31st I see the album without this piece of art I’m gonna be so MAD, also, imagine the amount of masterpieces that Louis maybe has created?? He said he wrote over 100 songs for the album 😔 and he only chose 12!!! I need the rest

    V.... S....

    Vanesa Soria, Similar to what Niall said writing songs for “Flicker”. 😭 😭 I need access to their archives. Lol 😂 😂 where ever they’ve written bits and pieces of songs here and there. Ugh 😭 😭

  61. M.... J....

    If this isnt on the album... I'm gonna freak the fuck out frlllll

  62. M.... J....

    That cough was for harry.... harry always coughs like that..........😊😩😩😩😩

I hate to say but I do. *cough* sleeping on our problems and we’ll solve them in our dreams. Wake up early morning and we’re still under the sheets. I’m lost I’m my head, I’m spinning again, tryin to find what to say to you. *cough* been up all night, all night running all my lines, but it’s only the truth.

And you just keep on build up defenses but I’ve never been so defenseless. You don’t have to keep on being strong for me and you. Acting like you feel no pain, you know I know you do.
