Something's getting 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 small,
I once lived in a time that was peace and no troubles at all
But then you came my way,
and the feeling I now have 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 color so bright
Changing the gray,
changing the blue,
scarlet for me
and scarlet for you
I forget to know if this is the real thing
I forget to know what's making my heart beat
But I can't help but sing, oh yeah
You smile and I'm 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
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 color so bright
Changing the gray,
changing the blue,
scarlet for me
and scarlet for you
