I've been swallowed by your kindness
Every part of me is breaking down
You have let me feel so helpless
As if I couldn't drown
It was all with love
you understood the need in me
So much tenderness
you wrapped in humanity
You touched my soul
My very being
You made me whole
Now life has new meaning
Gotta a second chance
You can see the change in me
And as we dance
You wrap me in humanity
Others walked on by in their blindness
but you refused to let me be
My disguise you saw behind this
You pushed on in and set me free
And it was in protection
You held on with such certainty
Embraced by your affection
As you wrapped me in humanity
You touched my soul
My very being
You made me whole
Now life has new meaning
Gotta a second chance
You can see the change in me
And as we dance
You wrap me in humanity
Every part of me is breaking down
You have let me feel so helpless
As if I couldn't drown
you understood the need in me
So much tenderness
you wrapped in humanity
My very being
You made me whole
Now life has new meaning
Gotta a second chance
You can see the change in me
And as we dance
You wrap me in humanity
but you refused to let me be
My disguise you saw behind this
You pushed on in and set me free
You held on with such certainty
Embraced by your affection
As you wrapped me in humanity
My very being
You made me whole
Now life has new meaning
Gotta a second chance
You can see the change in me
And as we dance
You wrap me in humanity

these lyrics are fantastic, and the song is terrific; always cheers me up and gives me a hope that love will be found... that someone will reach me beneath my disguise, push on in and set me free...
She never expected her lover to treat her so well, "ive been swallowed by your kindness, every part of me is breaking down" But to the point where shes almost paralyzed with strong emotions for him. She keeps a shield up, but he found a way past it "my disguise you saw behind this, you pushed on and set me free".
I'm getting deep here, but i think its saying that no one likes to be caught off guard and taken for a fool or fallen in love too quickly... but in this song she's saying "And it was in protection, You held on with such certainty" meaning that he is actually a good person and she can trust him.
