Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart lyrics by Gene Pitney & Marc Almond

SOMETHING'S GOTTEN HOLD OF MY HEART

Marc Almond & 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 a knife

Turning me up, turning me down
Making me smile and making me frown


In a world that was (poor)
I once lived in a time
There 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 wanna tell you now


Something got a hold of my hand
Draggin' my soul to a beautiful land yeah
(Somethin' has invaded my night)
Paintin' my sleep with a colour so bright
Changin' the grey and changin' the blue
Scarlet for me and scarlet for you

Instrumental Break

I've got to know if this is the real thing
I've got to know what's makin' my heart sing whoa yeah...
You smile an' I am lost for a lifetime
(Each minute spent with you is the right time)
(Ev'ry hour, yeah ev'ry day yeah)
(You touch me and my life goes astray)
(Yeah and baby yeah and baby yeah)
C#7


Something's gotten hold of my hand
Draggin' my soul to a beautiful land yeah
Something's gotten into my life
Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife
Turning me up uh huh, turnin' m down yeh heh
Makin' me smile, making me frown...


In a world that was small
In a world that was small
I once lived in a time
That was peace with no trouble at all
(But then you, you, you) you came my way...
But then you came my way
An' a feeling I know
Took my heart, made me want you to stay
All of my nights and all of my
Day-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ee-ay

Yeah I wanna tell you
Somethin's gotten hold of my heart
Keeping' my soul and my senses apart
Yeah (something has invaded my night)

Paintin' my sleep with a colour so bright
Changin' the grey, (changin' the blue)
Scarlet for me an' scarlet for you...
