Somethings Gotten Hold Of My Heart by Bic Runga Lyrics

Something's gotten hold of my heart
Keeping my soul and my senses apart
Something's gotten into my life
Cutting its way, my dreams like a knife
Turning me up, turning me down
Making me smile, making me frown

In a world that was small, I once lived in a time
That was peace with no trouble at all
Then you came my way
And a feeling unknown shook my heart made me want you to stay
All of my nights, and all of my days

Yeah I wanna tell you that something's gotten hold of my hand
Dragging my soul to a beautiful land
Yeah, something has invaded my night
Painting my sleep with a colour 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, oh oh
You smile and then I'm lost for a lifetime
Each minute spent with you is the right time
Every hour, every day yeah
You touch me and my mind goes astray yeah
And baby, yeah
Something's gotten hold of my heart
Keeping my soul and my senses apart
Something has invaded my night
Painting my sleep with a colour so bright
Changing the grey, changing the blue
Scarlet for me and scarlet for you
