I've Got You Under My Skin
Captivated Heart: Embracing a Love That Resides Within
Lyrics
I've got you under my skin.
I feel a deep emotional connection with you.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
Your presence is embedded deeply within me.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
You are an integral part of my inner self and emotions.
I've got you under my skin.
You are constantly on my mind.
I'd tried so not to give in.
I attempted not to succumb to these feelings.
I said to myself: this affair never will go so well.
I convinced myself that this romantic involvement won't end well.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know down well
Despite my resistance, I acknowledge that I truly have strong feelings for you.
I've got you under my skin?
I cannot deny that you have a significant impact on me.
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
I'm willing to give up anything for the chance to be close to you.
For the sake of havin' you near
Despite warnings, I desire your proximity.
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
A voice warns me at night, but I choose to ignore it.
And repeats, repeats in my ear:
The warning voice repeats in my mind.
Don't you know, you fool, you never can win?
Despite knowing the risks, I'm captivated by you.
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
I'm urged to think sensibly and face reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Thinking of you makes me reconsider my decisions.
Makes me stop before I begin
I pause before taking any action because of my feelings for you.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
You are deeply ingrained in my thoughts and emotions.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
I'm willing to make sacrifices for the opportunity to be close to you.
For the sake of havin' you near
Ignoring warnings, I long to be near you.
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
The warning voice persists in my thoughts at night.
And repeats, how it yells in my ear:
The warning voice emphatically repeats its message.
Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win
Despite the slim chance of success, I am drawn to you.
Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality?
The plea to think rationally and face reality is emphasized.
And each time I do just the thought of you
Thoughts of you make me hesitate just before taking action.
Makes me stop just before I begin
My emotions for you affect my decision-making process.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
Your influence is profound and pervasive in my life.
And I like you under my skin.
I enjoy having you as a significant presence in my life.
