Songtekst

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 war
I once lived in a time that was peace
With no trouble at all
But then you came my way
And a feeling of unknown shook my heart
Made me want you to stay
All of my nights
And all of my days

Yeah, I gotta tell you now
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
And 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, woah, yeah
You smile and I am lost for a lifetime
Each minute spent with you is the right time
Every hour, yeah
Every day, yeah
You touch me and my mind goes astray, yeah
And baby, yeah
And baby, yeah

Something's gotten hold of my hand
Dragging 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, ah
Turning me down, yeah
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 (But then you came my way)
And a feeling of unknown shook my heart
Made me want you to stay
All of my nights
And all of my days

Something's gotten hold of my heart
Keeping my soul and my senses apart
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
