Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

Something's gotten hold of my heart 

Tearing my soul and my senses apart 

Something's gotten into my life 

Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife 

Turning me up and turning me down 

Making me laugh and making me frown 

In a world that was strong 

I would lived in a time with no peace or no trouble at all 

But then my way 

And a feeling I know, shook my heart 

And I want you to stay 

All of my nights and all of my days 

Something's gotten hold of my heart 

Tearing my soul and my senses apart 

Something's gotten into my life 

Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife 

Changing the gray to a depression blue 

Scarlet for me, it's scarlet for you 

Got to know if this is the real thing 

I've got to know what's making my heart sing, oh, yeah 

Turn around, I am lost for a lifetime 

Each minute spent with you is a lifetime 

Every hour, every day 

You touch me and my mind goes astray 

Baby, gotta tell you something's gotten hold of my heart 

Tearing my soul and my senses wide apart 

Something's gotten right into my life 

Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife 

Changing the gray 

Changing the blue 

Scarlet for me 

It's scarlet for you
