Someone's Got a Hold of My Heart

They say, eat, drink and be merry Take the bull by the horns I keep seeing visions of you, a lily among thorns Everything looks a little far away to me Getting harder and harder to recognize the trap Too much information about nothing Too much educated rap It's just like you told me, just like you said it would be The moon rising like wildfire I feel the breath of a storm Something I got to do tonight You go inside and stay warm Someone's got a hold of my heart Someone's got a hold of my heart Someone's got a hold of my heart, you You yeah, you got a hold of my heart Just got back from a city of powder blue skies Everybody thinks with their stomach There's plenty of spies Every street is crooked, they just wind around 'til they disappear Madame Butterfly, she lulled me to sleep Like an ancient river So wide and deep She said, "Be easy, baby, ain't nothin' worth stealing in here" You're the one I've been waiting for You're the one I desire But you must first realize I'm not another man for hire Someone's got a hold of my heart Someone's got a hold of my heart Someone's got a hold of my heart You, you, you, you Yeah, you got a hold of my heart I hear the hot-blooded singer On the bandstand croon September's song, Memphis in June While they're beating the devil out of a guy who's wearing a flame in red wig I've been to Babylon, I got to confess I could still hear that voice crying in the wilderness What looks large from a distance, close up was never that big Never could learn to drink that blood and call it wine Never could learn to look at your face and call it mine Someone's got a hold of my heart Someone's got a hold of my heart Someone's got a hold of my heart, you Yeah, you got a hold of my heart
