body and soul
Jens O. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You′ve got me blinded, maybe lose my head
And I, I will never forget the first time we met
You really drive me wild at the speed of light
And now, suddenly I know that I cannot deny
Taking over, taking control
You got my heart and mind, my body and soul
Taking over, taking control
You got my heart and mind, my body and soul
Taking over, taking control
You got my heart and mind, my body and soul
Taking over, taking control
You got my heart, my, my body and soul
You really drive me wild at the speed of light
And now, suddenly I know that I cannot deny
You've got me blinded, maybe lose my head
And I, I will never forget the first time we met
Taking over, taking control
You got my heart and mind, my body and soul
Taking over, taking control
You got my heart and mind, my body, body, body
Taking over, taking control
You got my heart and mind, my body and soul




Taking over, taking control
You got my heart, my, my body and soul
