something's gotten hod 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, making me 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
  made me want you to stay
  all of my nights
  and all of my days

  I wanna tell you now
  something's gotten hold of my hand
  dragging my soul to a beautiful land
  something's has invaded my night
  painting my sleep with a colour so bright
  changing the grey,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, oh yeah
  a smile and I am lost for a lifetime
  each minute spent with you is the right time
  every hour (yeah) ever day (yeah)
  you touch me and my mind goes astray
  and baby yeah, and baby yeah

  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 smile, making me 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
  made me want you to stay
  all of my nights
  and all of my days

  something's gotten hod of my heart
  keeping my soul and my senses apart
  something's has invaded my night
  painting my sleep with a colour so bright
  changing the grey,changing the blue
  scarlet for me, scarlet for you
