Hooked On A Feeling
Vonda Shepard(본다 셰퍼드) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't stop this feeling
Deep inside of me
Girl, you just don't realize
What you do to me

Your lips are sweet as candy
The taste stays on my mind
You just keep me thirsty
For another cup of wine

When you hold me
In your arms so tight
You let me know
Everything's all right

I, I'm hooked on a feeling
I'm high on believing
That you're in love with me

I've got it bad for you, darling
But I don't need a cure
I'll just stay addicted
And hope I can endure

All the good love
When we're all alone
Keep it up boy
Yeah, you turn me on

I, I'm hooked on a feeling
I'm high on believing
That you're in love with me

When you hold me
In your arms so tight
You let me know
Everything's all right

I, I'm hooked on a feeling
I'm high on believing
That you're in love with me





I said I'm hooked on a feeling
