Heart and Soul
The Incredibles Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Heart and soul, I fell in love with you
Heart and soul, the way a fool would do, madly
Because you held me tight
And stole a kiss in the night

Heart and soul, I begged to be adored
Lost control, and tumbled overboard, gladly
That magic night we kissed
There in the moon mist

Oh! but your lips were thrilling, much too thrilling
Never before were mine so strangely willing

But now I see, what one embrace can do
Look at me, it's got me loving you madly
That little kiss you stole
Held all my heart and soul

(Transcribed by Bill Huntley - November 2004)

HEART AND SOUL (version with additional verse at the beginning)

I've let a pair of arms enslave me
Oft times before
But more than just a thrill, you gave me,
Yes more, much more.

Heart and soul, I fell in love with you
Heart and soul, the way a fool would do, madly
Because you held me tight
And stole a kiss in the night

Heart and soul, I begged to be adored
Lost control, and tumbled overboard, gladly
That magic night we kissed
There in the moon mist

Oh! but your lips were thrilling, much too thrilling
Never before were mine so strangely willing

But now I see, what one embrace can do
Look at me, it's got me loving you madly
That little kiss you stole




Held all my heart and soul
Heart an soul ...

With all my being, I became deeply enamored with you


Heart and soul, the way a fool would do, madly
I loved you recklessly and foolishly, with all of my passion


Because you held me tight
Your embrace made me feel secure


And stole a kiss in the night
You surprised me with a romantic gesture, a stolen kiss in the darkness

I pleaded with you to give me your love and attention


Lost control, and tumbled overboard, gladly

The night we shared our first kiss was so filled with enchantment


There in the moon mist
We were surrounded by a dreamlike haze, with the moon shining down on us

That small, stolen kiss has had such a profound effect on me


Held all my heart and soul
It captured my entire being, leaving me with a deep and passionate love for you
