Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh-oh, sometimes I get a good feeling, yeah (Yeah)
I get a feeling that I never, never, never, never had before, no, no (Yeah)
I just wanna tell you right now that I (Ooh)
I believe, I really do believe that
[Verse 2]
Something's got a hold on me, yeah
(Oh, it must be love)
Oh, something's got a hold on me right now, child
(Oh, it must be love)
Let me tell you now
[Verse 3]
I've got a feeling, I feel so strange
Everything about me seems to have changed
Step by step, I got a brand new walk
I even sound sweeter when I talk
I said, oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh (Oh)
Hey, hey, yeah, oh, it must be love
(You know it must be love)
Let me tell you now
[Verse 4]
Something's got a hold on me, yeah
(Oh, it must be love)
Oh, something's got a hold on me right now, child
(Oh, it must be love)
Let me tell you now
[Verse 5]
I've never felt like this before
Something's got a hold on me and it won't let go
Believe I'd die if I only could
I feel so strange but it sure is good
I said, oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh (Oh)
Hey, hey, yeah, oh, it must be love
(You know it must be love)
Let me tell you now
[Verse 6]
My heart feels happy, my feet feel light
I shake all over but I feel alright
I never felt like this before
Something's got a hold on me and it won't let go
Now I never it could happen to me
Got me happy when I'm in misery
But I never thought it would be this way
But love sure gone and put a hurting on me
I said, oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh (Oh)
Hey, hey, yeah, oh, it must be love
(You know it must be love)
[Verse 7]
Oh, you know it walks like love
(You know it walks like love)
It talk like love
(You know it talks like love)
Make me feel alright
(Make me feel alright)
In the middle of the night
(In the middle of the night)
La, la, la, la
(La, la, la, la)
La, la, la, la
(La, la, la, la)
