Lyrics
I’ve got you under my skinI’ve got you, deep in the heart of meSo deep in my heart that you’re really a part of meI’ve got you under my skinI’d tried so, not to give inI said to myself this affair never will go so wellBut why should I try to resist when baby I know so wellI’ve got you under my skinI’d sacrifice anything come what mightFor the sake of having you nearIn spite of a warning voice that comes in the nightAnd repeats, repeats in my earDon’t you know, little foolYou never can winUse your mentalityWake up to realityBut each time that I do just the thought of youMakes me stop before I begin‘Cause I’ve got you under my skinI would sacrifice anything come what mightFor the sake of having you nearIn spite of a warning voice that comes in the nightAnd repeats how it yells in my earDon’t you know, little foolYou never can winWhy not use your mentalityStep up, wake up to realityBut each time I do just the thought of youMakes me stop just before I begin‘Cause I’ve got you under my skinYes, I’ve got you under my skin
