Vertigo
Barbara Pennington Lyrics

I can't stand it when you speak
Your mere presence affects me to the point that I feel overwhelmed with attraction and passion.

You touch me and my knees go weak
Your touch is electrifying and affects me so deeply that my body loses its strength.

My heart starts poundin' like a drum
The intensity of my feelings for you is so great that my heart starts to beat rapidly.

Senseless is what I become
The overwhelming nature of my attraction and passion for you leaves me in a state where I feel fuzzy and disoriented.

You are the cause of all this
You are the only reason that I feel this way, as I am completely consumed by my feelings for you.

Cupid's arrow didn't miss
I have been struck by love and my feelings for you are genuine and intense.

It truly hit me deep down inside
My attraction to you is not just superficial, but rather it comes from a deep place within me.

With feelings that I couldn't hide
I cannot conceal the depth of my attraction and passion for you, regardless of how hard I try.

Vertigo Your love makes me dizzy My feet don't touch the ground Vertigo Your love makes me dizzy It's spinnin' me around
Your love has put me in a dizzying state where reality and control of my emotions are fleeting.

I'm walkin' the tightrope down the line
My feelings for you leave me in a precarious state, as if I am trying to balance on a tightrope.

Your love's a magic carpet ride
My feelings for you are so intense and consuming that it feels like I'm on a magical journey every time I'm with you.

And I'm quivering inside
My attraction and passion for you is so intense that it causes a physical reaction within me.

I really can't control my mind
My thoughts and emotions are completely overtaken by my feelings for you, and I cannot exercise any control over them.

Reality is far behind
My attraction and passion for you are so intense that it's difficult to even perceive reality, as it becomes secondary to my feelings for you.

Turn me around, turn me around Put me down Move me left and right Shake me about, shake me about Take me out, but don't move out of sight Baby, yeah
Your love has complete control and dominion over me, and I am willing to go wherever you take me so long as I can continue feeling your love.

Love has me caught in a trap And there is no turnin' back You've made a prisoner out of me Locked up for eternity
My feelings for you are so strong that I cannot escape them, and I am completely beholden to your love.

Every time you're around I'm fallin' down to the ground My balance has faded away Come on and save me today
My feelings for you are so overwhelming that I am emotionally and mentally unstable, and I need you to help me regain my sense of balance.

All of my strength, all of my strength Make me sing I'm your puppet now Lift me up high Lift me up high To the sky, take me there somehow
I am completely under your control now, and I am willing to go wherever you take me so long as it means I can continue feeling your love.

It's vertigo, yeah!
The state that my feelings for you put me in is so overwhelming that it feels like I'm experiencing vertigo.

Oh, I can't stand it Oh baby Ooh honey Spin me around and around and around
My attraction and passion for you are so intense that I am unable to even stand in your presence, and I crave to be spun around and consumed by your love.

Your love makes me dizzy My feet don't touch the ground Vertigo Your love makes me dizzy It's spinnin' me around
The intensity of my attraction and passion for you is so great that I feel like I'm in a constant state of dizziness, and it leaves me feeling completely consumed by your love.

Spinnin' me around and around and around Oh baby, I can't get my feet on the ground What would I do without your love? You're an angel in the sky, you've been sent from above
Your love has completely taken over my life, and without you, I feel lost and disoriented. You are like an angel that was sent to me to save me from the despair that I would otherwise feel without your love.
