[Verse 1]
You come to me with a casual flow
And suddenly my defenses start to go
When you talk to me in that sensual tone
It envelopes me and I lose my self-control

[Chorus]
And baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off (I got off)
I just wanna break it down
Anytime you come around
And baby, I could melt away in your arms

[Verse 2]
Imagining that you're taking it slow
And so tenderly
'Till the feeling overflows
When you look at me, I go soft and cave in
And I can't conceal that I'm slowly weakening

[Chorus]
And baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off (I got off)
I just wanna break it down
Anytime you come around
And baby, I could melt away in your arms

[Verse 3]
You and me in a cloud of reverie
Spin around inside my head unendingly
Thoughts run wild as I sit and rhapsodize
Paint pretty pictures of what I'd do if you were mine

[Chorus]
And baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off (I got off)
I just wanna break it down
Anytime you come around
And baby, I could melt away in your arms
And baby, I just melt away
Fall like rain
Every time I see your face, I go off
I just wanna break it down
Anytime you come around
And baby, I could melt away in your arms

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
