I've Got You Under My Skin
Captivated by Love's Grip: I've Got You Under My Skin
Lyrics
I've got you under my skin.
I have a deep emotional connection with you, figuratively having you under my skin.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
Your presence is embedded deeply in my emotions and inner self.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
You are an integral part of my heart, a significant aspect of who I am.
I've got you under my skin.
Reiteration of the idea that you are profoundly influencing me.
I'd tried so not to give in.
I attempted to resist getting emotionally involved with you.
I said to myself, this affair never will go so well.
I told myself that this romantic relationship would not go smoothly.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know down well
Questioning the rationale behind resisting, acknowledging the emotional connection.
I've got you under my skin?
Affirmation that the emotional connection persists despite efforts to resist.
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
Expressing a willingness to make significant sacrifices for the sake of being close to you.
For the sake of havin' you near
Despite warnings, expressing a strong desire to have you nearby.
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
Acknowledging an inner warning voice that attempts to caution against pursuing the relationship.
And repeats, repeats in my ear,
The warning voice repeats, emphasizing the inner conflict.
Don't you know, you fool, you never can win?
Self-criticism, recognizing the difficulty of winning in this emotional situation.
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
Encouraging rational thinking and awakening to the reality of the situation.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
The mere thought of you makes it challenging to resist pursuing the relationship.
Makes me stop before I begin
Feeling compelled to pause and reconsider before engaging further emotionally.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
Reiteration that the emotional connection is deeply ingrained.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
Repeating the willingness to make sacrifices for the sake of closeness.
For the sake of havin' you near
Reaffirming the desire to have you nearby despite warnings.
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
Reiteration of the persistent inner warning voice.
And repeats, how it yells in my ear,
Emphasizing the intensity of the warning voice in the night.
Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win
Recognizing the slim chance of success in the emotional situation.
Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality?
Advising to use rational thinking and wake up to the reality of the situation.
And each time I do just the thought of you
The thought of you hinders the ability to fully wake up to the reality.
Makes me stop just before I begin
The recurring challenge of pausing before getting emotionally involved.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
Reiterating the deep emotional connection and the difficulty of resisting it.
And I like you under my skin.
Expressing a liking for the profound emotional connection, reinforcing its significance.
