The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Nobody ever moved me

Did the things that you're doing to me

I see you and that's all it takes

For you to make me crazy

I only wanted to touch you baby

And I never meant to stay, I know

I better get a hold of my heart

Before I lose my head, before I go too far

I gotta get a hold of my heart

Before you change my mind and get me down on my knees

I better get out while I can, get a hold of my heart

Get a hold of my heart

Never thought I'd get this deep now

Ooh and I can't get free now

No I just can't find a way

'Cause you love me senseless

Ooh and my heart is helpless

When you're touching me this way, I know

I better get a hold of my heart

Before I lose my head, before I go too far

I gotta get a hold of my heart

Before you change my mind and get me down on my knees

I better get out while I can, get a hold of my heart

Get a hold of my heart

And every time I see you

I see how much I need you

And when you're here beside me baby

I know

And every time I see you

I see how much I need you

And when you're here beside me baby

I know

I better get a hold of my heart

Before I lose my head, before I go too far

I gotta get a hold of my heart

Before you change my mind and get me down on my knees

I better get out while I can, get a hold of my heart

I better get a hold of my heart

Before I lose my head, before I go too far

I gotta get a hold of my heart

Before you change my mind and get me down on my knees

I better get a hold of my heart

Before I lose my head, before I go too far

I gotta get a hold of my heart

Before you change my mind and get me down on my knees
