Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Got a feeling inside (Can't explain)

It's a certain kind (Can't explain)

I feel hot and cold (Can't explain)

Yeah, down in my soul, yeah (Can't explain)

[Verse 2]

I said (Can't explain)

I'm feeling good now, yeah, but (Can't explain)

[Verse 3]

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling blue

The things you've said, well, maybe they're true

I'm getting funny dreams again and again

I know what it means, but

[Verse 4]

Can't explain, I think it's love

Try to say it to you when I feel blue

But I can't explain (Can't explain)

Yeah, you hear what I'm saying, girl, (Can't explain)

[Verse 5]

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling bad

The things you've said have got me real mad

I'm getting funny dreams again and again

I know what it means, but

[Verse 6]

Can't explain, I think it's love

Try to say it to you when I feel blue

But I can't explain (Can't explain)

Forgive me one more time, now (Can't explain)

[Verse 7]

I said, I can't explain, yeah

You drive me out of my mind

Yeah, I'm the worrying kind, babe

I said I can't explain
