Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
I tried so not to give in
I said to myself, "This affair never will go so well"
But why should I try to resist, when, darling, I know so well
I've got you under my skin?
[Verse 3]
I'd sacrifice anything, come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats and repeats in my ear
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
I'd sacrifice anything, come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats and repeats in my ear
[Verse 6]
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
I've got you under my skin
