I've got you under my skin.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
You're so deep in my heart
That you're really a part
Of me.
And I've got you under my skin.
I've tried so not to give in.
You know I said to myself
This affair ain't gonna go so well,
But why should I try to resist,
When, baby, I know so well
That I've got you way under my skin.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near.
In spite of a warning voice comes in the night
And repeats in my ear,
"Don't you know, you fool,
You never can win.
Use your mentality,
Step up to reality."
But each time I do,
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin.
'Cause I've got you,
you're under my skin.
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—how it yells in these ears,
"Don't you know, you fool,
No chance to win!
Why not use your mentality?
Wake up, step up to reality."
But each time I do,
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin.
Because I've got you under my skin.
And I love you under my skin.
