You know, Baby, when you're in my arms,
I can feel your loving magic charms
You drive me crazy, you drive me crazy.
And when I'm looking in those big blue eyes,
I start a'floating round in paradise,

You drive me crazy, you drive me crazy.
Heaven must have sent you down ,
Down for you to give me a thrill,
Every time you touch me

Every time you hold me,
My heart starts speeding like a train on a track.
I love you, Baby, and it's plain to see,
I love you, honey, it was meant to be

You drive me crazy, you drive me crazy, oh.

Heaven must have sent you down, ...

I love you, Baby, and it's plain to see, . ..

And when I'm looking in those big blue eyes, ...
You drive me crazy, you drive me crazy, oh
