I've Got You Under My Skin
Captivated by Love's Grip
Lyrics
I've got you under my skin.
I have a deep emotional connection with you.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
Your presence is embedded in the core of my being.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
Your significance is profound and an integral part of me.
I've got you under my skin.
The feeling of having you close is deeply ingrained in me.
I'd tried so not to give in.
I attempted not to succumb to these emotions.
I said to myself, this affair never will go so well.
I told myself that this romantic involvement wouldn't go smoothly.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know down well
Questioning the resistance when I am well aware that I desire you.
I've got you under my skin?
Acknowledging the irresistible influence you have on me.
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
Expressing willingness to sacrifice anything for your proximity.
For the sake of havin' you near
Despite warnings, I value having you close.
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
Reference to an inner voice cautioning against the consequences.
And repeats, repeats in my ear,
The voice repeats the warning in my thoughts.
Don't you know, you fool, you never can win?
Realization that pursuing this may lead to failure.
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
Advice to think rationally and face the truth.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
The mere thought of you halts my rational thinking.
Makes me stop before I begin
Acknowledging a pause before acting due to emotions.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
Reiterating the overpowering influence you have on me.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
Reaffirming a willingness to sacrifice for your closeness.
For the sake of havin' you near
Despite warnings, the desire for your presence persists.
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
Reiteration of the cautioning inner voice.
And repeats, how it yells in my ear,
The voice repeats its warning loudly in my mind.
Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win
Acknowledging the slim chance of success in pursuing you.
Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality?
Encouragement to think realistically and face the truth.
And each time I do just the thought of you
Each time I try, thoughts of you hinder my actions.
Makes me stop just before I begin
Acknowledging a pause just before engaging due to emotions.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
Reiterating the profound impact you have on my decisions.
And I like you under my skin.
Expressing a liking for the emotional influence you exert on me.
