I´ve Got You Under My Skin
Embracing Love's Inescapable Grip
Lyrics
I've got you under my skin
I have a strong emotional connection with you.
I've got you, deep in the heart of me
You are deeply ingrained in the core of my being.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
Your presence is so profound in my heart that you're an integral part of who I am.
I've got you under my skin
You are constantly on my mind and in my thoughts.
I'd tried so, not to give in
I attempted not to surrender to my feelings.
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 so well
Despite knowing the challenges, why should I resist when I'm well aware of our connection?
I've got you under my skin
Your influence is deeply embedded in me.
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
I'm willing to give up anything for the chance to have you close to me.
For the sake of having you near
Despite potential consequences, I want you in my life.
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
Ignoring a cautionary inner voice that warns me in the night.
And repeats, repeats in my ear
Repeating warnings that persistently echo in my mind.
Don't you know, little fool
A term of endearment, suggesting affection despite potential challenges.
You never can win
A realization that the situation may not lead to victory.
Use your mentality
Advice to think logically and make rational decisions.
Wake up to reality
A call to face the truth and be aware of reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Despite rational thoughts, the mere idea of you makes me pause.
Makes me stop before I begin
I hesitate to act because of the strong emotional pull you have on me.
'Cause I've got you under my skin
Reiteration of the emotional hold you have on me.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
Reaffirmation of the willingness to give up anything for your closeness.
For the sake of having you near
Despite warnings, the desire to have you close persists.
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
Repetition of the inner voice cautioning in the night.
And repeats how it yells in my ear
The persistent and loud warnings in my mind.
Don't you know, little fool
A repeated term of endearment, highlighting affection despite potential challenges.
You never can win
A recognition that winning in this situation might be challenging.
Why not use your mentality
Suggestion to use logical thinking and reason.
Step up, wake up to reality
An urging to face reality and be aware of the situation.
But each time I do just the thought of you
Despite rational thoughts, thoughts of you make me hesitate.
Makes me stop just before I begin
I pause just before taking action because of the emotional hold you have on me.
'Cause I've got you under my skin
Reiteration of the deep emotional connection that influences my decisions.
Yes, I've got you under my skin
A final affirmation that you are deeply embedded in my thoughts and emotions.
