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.

I'm not much on mystery

Yeah you gotta be careful what you dream

I thought this might pass with time

Yeah I thought I was satisfied

Chorus:

But oh baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you

Baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you

It don't matter what you say

It don't matter what you do

I, I, I, got a thing about you

Somewhere deep in the middle of the night

Lovers hold each other tight

Whisper in their anxious ears

Words of love that disappear

Chorus

Baby you hold some strange control over me

Yeah it's so wild it hypnotizes me

Raise Both Arms and Repeat Chorus
