I fell in love
When I first spotted you among the crowd
Your eyes met mine
And that's when the room started spinning around
Suddenly
I couldn't breathe
I felt my knees
Getting weak
And baby I could not think straight
I had to move
Closer to you
Talk to you
But you had left me in an altered state
And it was driving me insane
Under the influence
Baby you got me
Under...fascinated, intoxicated (cuz I'm)
Under the influence
Oh baby you got me
Under the influence of you
I moved your way
It's more like gravity was steerin' my heart
What can I say
(I want to be your lover baby)
Be your lover right from the start
I had to go
Very slow
Vertigo
Was rushin' through my body
And my brain
I was mesmerized
Hypnotized
To my surprise
You told me that you felt the same way
And it was driving you insane
[Chorus]
I had to go
Very slow
Vertigo
Was rushin' through my body
And my brain
Mesmerized
Hypnotized
To my surprise
You told me that you felt the same way
And it was driving you insane
[Chorus]
