I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin
I've tried so not to give in
I've said to myself this affair never could go so well
But why should I try to resist, when darling I know so well
I've got you under my skin
I'd sacrifice anything come what may
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a voice that comes in the night
And repeats in my ear
Don't you know little fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
(Musical Interlude)
I'd sacrifice anything come what may
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a voice that comes in the night
And repeats in my ear
Don't you know little fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you,
yes I've got you,
I've got you,
Under my skin
