You got me runnin' round in circles
You make me feel confused and unsure about our relationship
I just can't keep up of your love
I can't understand the constant changes in your feelings towards me
You bring me up (you)
Your love and affection uplifts my spirits
You bring me down
Your indifference and coldness brings me down and makes me feel low
You got me spinnin' around
I feel disoriented and dizzy because of the unpredictable nature of our relationship
Look what you do to me girl
Your actions and behavior towards me have a profound impact on my emotional state
You got control of me girl
You have the power to influence my thoughts and actions due to my strong feelings towards you
You got me thinking of nothing but you
You are constantly on my mind and I can't focus on anything else
You got me trippin' on the things you do
Your behavior and actions towards me make me feel like I am falling in love with you over and over again
Cause just can't get enough of
I am addicted to your love and can't get enough of it
And I can let go of your love
I can't imagine my life without your love, so I hold on to it even when things get tough
You got me dreamin' of nothing but you
You are my only dream and I can't imagine a future without you
And I'm so addicted to the things you do
I am addicted to you and the way you make me feel
I'm on this carousel,
My emotions and feelings towards you are constantly spinning in circles like a carousel ride
You got me dizzy all in my head
Your love and behavior towards me have left me feeling dizzy and confused
Even though I know I can't take this
Even though I know our relationship is tumultuous and unpredictable, I can't help but be drawn to you
I keep on coming back for more
Despite the ups and downs of our relationship, I continue to come back to you because of my strong feelings
And more more more (...)
My emotions and desires towards you keep growing stronger and more intense
