Something's gotten hold of my heart Tearing 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 laugh and making me frown In a world that was war (strong) I once lived in a time That was peace with no trouble at all But then you came my way And a feeling I know, shook my heart And made me want you to stay All of my nights and all of my days Something's gotten hold of my heart Tearing my soul and my senses apart Something's gotten into my life, cutting Its way through my dreams like a knife Changing the grey to a depression blue Scarlet for me, it's 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, oh yeah Turn around and I am lost for a lifetime Each minute spent with you is the lifetime Every hour, every day You touch me and my mind goes astray Gotta tell you Something's gotten hold of my heart Tearing my soul And my senses wide apart Something's gotten into my life, cutting Its way through my dreams like a knife Changing the grey, changing the blue Scarlet for me, it's scarlet for you
