Somethings Gotten Hold Of My Heart - Gene Pitney

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 the night
turning me up turning me down
making me smile and making me frown

in a world that was small
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
made me want you to stay
all of my nights and all of my days

yeah i gotta tell ya now
something's gotten hold of my hand
dragging my soul to a beautiful land
and something has invaded my night
painting my sleep with the colours so bright
changing the grey, 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
whoa yeah, you smile and i am lost for a lifetime
every minute spent with you is the right time
every hour yeah every day yeah
you touch me and my mind goes astray
and baby, and baby

something got a hold of my hand
dragging my soul to a beautiful
dragging my soul to a beautiful land
yeah something has invaded my night
painting my sleep with the colours so bright
