Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart

(Greenaway, Cooke)

Something's gotten hold of my heart

Keeping my soul and my senses apart

Something's gotten into my life

Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife

Turning me up and turning me down

Making me smile and making me frown

In a world that was small

I once lived in a time there was peace with no trouble at all

But then you came my way

And a feeling unknown shook my heart, made me want you to stay

All of my nights and all of my days

I gotta tell you now

Something's gotten hold of my hand

Dragging my soul to a beautiful land

Something has invaded my nights

Painting my sleep with a colour so bright

Changing the grey and changing the blue

Scarlet for me and scarlet for you

I've got to know if this is the real thing

I've got to know what's making my heart sing

You smile and I am lost for a lifetime

Each minute spent with you is the right time

Every hour, every day

You touch me and my mind goes astray
