A            G#maj7
Looking in my mirror
A            G#maj7
Took me by surprise
Fm9               A#
I can't help but see you
 C#m7   D#7              Emaj7 F#m7 G#m7 Amaj7
Running often through my mind.

Helpless like a baby
Sensual disguise
I can't help but love you
It's getting better all the time

Chorus:
        Fm9          Fm
I can't help it if I wanted to
           C#m7         D#7
I wouldn't help it even if I could
        Fm9          Fm
I can't help it if I wanted to
           C#m7    D#7
I wouldn't help it, no
        Fm9          Fm
I can't help it if I wanted to
           C#m7         D#7
I wouldn't help it even if I could
        Fm9          Fm
I can't help it if I wanted to
           C#m7    D#7
I wouldn't help it, no

Love to run my fingers
Softly while you sigh
Love came and possessed you
Bringing sparkles to your eyes
Like a trip to heaven
Heaven is the prize
And I'm so glad I found you, yeah
You're an angel in disguise

Chorus:
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no

And I'm so glad I found you, yeah
You're an angel in disguise

Chorus:
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
Wouldn't help it, no no
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
Wouldn't help it, no no no
