"I've Got You Under My Skin" lyrics

"I've Got You Under My Skin"
(originally by Virginia Bruce)

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
You're so deep in my heart
That you're really a part
Of me
And I've got you under my skin

I've tried so not to give in
You know I said to myself
"This affair ain't gonna go so well,"
But why should I try to resist
When, baby, I know so well
That I've got you way under my skin?

I would sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice comes in the night
And repeats in my ear

"Don't you know, you fool
You never can win?
Use your mentality
Step up to reality."

But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you
you're under my skin

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats—how it yells in these ears

"Don't you know, you fool?
No chance to win!
Why not choose your mentality?
Wake up, step up to reality."

But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
Because I've got you under my skin
And I love you under my skin
