Under The Influence Lyrics

Paula Abdul

(oliver leiber / worthy davis)
I fell in love
When I first spotted you among the crowd
Your eyes met mine
And thats when the room started spinning around
Suddenly
I couldnt breath
I felt my knees
Getting weak
And baby I could not think straight
I had to move
Closer to you
Talk to you
But you had left me in an altered state
And it was driving me insane
Chorus:
Under the influence
Baby you got me
Under...fascinated, intoxicated (cuz Im)
Under the influence
Oh baby you got me
Under the influence of you
I moved your way
Its more like gravity was steerin my heart
What can I say
(I want to be your lover baby)
Be your lover right from the start
I had to go
Very slow
Vertigo
Was rushin through my body
And my brain
I was mesmerized
Hypnotized
To my surprise
You told me that you felt the same way
And it was driving you insane
Chorus
I had to go
Very slow
Vertigo
Was rushin through my body
And my brain
I was mesmerized
Hypnotized
To my surprise
You told me that you felt the same way
And it was driving you insane
Chorus
