Soft Cell - Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart Lyrics

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 a smile
Making me a frown

In a world that was war
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

And I wanna tell you now
Something got a hold of my hand
Dragging my soul to a beautiful land
Something has invaded my night
Painting my sleep with a color so bright

Changing the gray
Changing the blue
Scarlet for me
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
A 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
And baby and baby

Something's gotten hold of my hand
Dragging my soul to a beautiful land
Something's gotten into my life
Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife

Turning me up
Turning me down
Making me a smile
Making me a frown

In a world that was war
I once lived in a time
That was peace
With no trouble at all

But then you, you, you, 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

And I wanna tell you now
Something's gotten hold of my heart
Keeping my soul and my senses apart
Something's invaded my night
Painting my sleep with a color so bright

Changing the gray
Changing the blue
Scarlet for me
And scarlet for you
