I Got You Under My Skin Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

I′ve got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart
You′re really a part of me

I've got you under my skin
I tried so not to give in
I said to myself
This affair never will go so well

But why should I try to resist
When, darling, I know so well
I've got you under my skin?

I′d sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin′ you near
In spite of a warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats, and repeats in my ear


"Don′t you know, little fool
You never can win?
Use your mentality
Wake up to reality"

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

I'd sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin′ you near
In spite of the warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats, and repeats in my ear

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

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