Ive Got You Under My Skin
The Echo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
I've got you under my skin.
I'd tried so not to give in.
I said to myself, this affair never will go so well.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know down well
I've got you under my skin?
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear,
Don't you know, you fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
Cause I've got you under my skin.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, how it yells in my ear,
Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win
Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality?
And each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
Cause I've got you under my skin.
And I like you under my skin.
"I've Got You Under My Skin" is a classic song famously recorded by Frank Sinatra in 1956. The lyrics convey a sense of infatuation and romantic obsession, with the singer admitting that their love interest is deeply ingrained in their heart and mind, to the point where they cannot resist their pull. The repetition of the title phrase reinforces this idea, as if to suggest that the subject is under the singer's "skin" figuratively, but perhaps even literally.
The lyrics reveal a conflict between the singer's rational mind and their emotions. They acknowledge the warning voice that warns them against pursuing the relationship, but cannot help but feel drawn to the subject of their affection. By repeating the refrain, "I've got you under my skin," the singer is perhaps attempting to convince themselves that their love interest is a part of them and therefore unavoidable.
The song is a classic of the Great American Songbook and has been recorded by many other artists over the years. It has been covered in a variety of styles, from rock to jazz to pop. The echoey sound of the recording adds to the sense of longing and desire conveyed in the lyrics.
