Backstreet Boys - Helpless When She Smiles

Helpless When She Smiles by Backstreet Boys, Music Video and Lyrics

“Helpless When She Smiles” is the second single produced by John Shanks from the Backstreet Boys 6th studio album Unbreakable, which was released on October 30, 2007. The single is set to release on mainstream on January 15th 2008.

The song is wonderful and the video is very good, well done BSB !

The video was filmed in only white and black, depicting the Boys standing in a corn field. It featured helicopter shots, and is only one of the two Backstreet Boys videos to do so, the other one being More Than That.

Backstreet Boys - Helpless When She Smiles Lyrics

She keeps the secrets in her eyes
She wraps the truth inside her lies
Just when I can’t take what she’s done to me
She comes to me
And leads me back to paradise

She’s so hard to hold
But I can’t let go

I’m a house of cards in a hurricane
A reckless ride in the pouring rain
She cuts me and the pain is all I wanna feel
She danced away just like a child
She drives me crazy, drives me wild
But I’m helpless when she smiles

Maybe I’d fight it if I could
It hurts so bad, but feels so good
She opens up just like a rose to me
When she’s close to me
Anything she asked me to, I would

It’s out of control
But I can’t let it go

When she looks at me
I get so weak
