I've Got You Under My Skin
Embracing Passion's Hold
Lyrics
I've got you under my skin.
I have a strong emotional connection with you, you're deeply ingrained in my thoughts and feelings.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
You are entrenched 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 it feels like you are an essential part of me.
I've got you under my skin.
Reiteration of the intense emotional connection, emphasizing its persistence.
I'd tried so not to give in.
Despite my efforts, I attempted not to succumb to this emotional attachment.
I said to myself, this affair never will go so well.
I convinced myself that this romantic involvement would not go smoothly.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know down well
Questioning the resistance, acknowledging the inevitability of the emotional connection.
I've got you under my skin?
Acknowledging the depth of emotional attachment, embracing it rather than resisting.
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
Expressing willingness to make significant sacrifices for the sake of being close to you.
For the sake of havin' you near
Despite a warning voice, the desire to have you close is strong.
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
Acknowledging the inner conflict with a warning voice that arises at night.
And repeats, repeats in my ear,
Repeating thoughts in the night, indicating the internal struggle and temptation.
Don't you know, you fool, you never can win?
Recognizing the futility of resisting, as the heart wants what it wants.
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
Advising to be rational and face reality, implying a conflict between heart and mind.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Despite rational thoughts, the mere thought of you has a powerful effect.
Makes me stop before I begin
Pausing before taking action due to the overwhelming influence of emotions.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
Reiterating the idea of having a profound influence, acknowledging the difficulty of resisting.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
Repeating the willingness to sacrifice for the sake of closeness.
For the sake of havin' you near
Reiteration of the inner conflict despite the warning voice.
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
Highlighting the persistent and loud nature of the warning voice in the night.
And repeats, how it yells in my ear,
Repeating the inner conflict and the repeated warnings in the ear.
Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win
Emphasizing the slim chances of success despite the emotional pull.
Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality?
Encouraging a shift to a more rational mindset, urging to wake up to reality.
And each time I do just the thought of you
Despite efforts to be rational, the thoughts of you remain powerful.
Makes me stop just before I begin
Continuing to be halted by thoughts of you just before taking action.
Cause I've got you under my skin.
Reiteration of the profound impact you have, acknowledging the difficulty of moving forward.
And I like you under my skin.
Expressing a liking for the intense emotional connection despite its challenges.
