Hypnotized With just one look at you I'm paralyzed I can't explain Why just one touch from you drives me insane You've got me head over heels Better believe it baby And I love how it feels Cross my heart hope to die May lightning strike me if I'm telling a lie Cross my heart I swear it's true I've never loved anyone more than I'm loving you Cross my heart it's true Believe me Oh oh Heavenly something happens When you're next to me I get chills You can ask me anything and babe I will You've got me out of control Better believe it baby Form my head to my toes Cross my heart hope to die May lightning strike me If I'm telling a lie Cross my heart I swear it's true I've never loved anyone more than I'm loving you Cross my heart it's true You're my valentine Every month of the year Baby rain or shine I'm so happy when you're here I want you all the time Am I making myself clear? My love's gonna last forever Cross my heart Cross my heart I've never loved anyone more than I'm loving you Cross my heart hope to die May lightning strike me If I'm telling a lie Cross my heart I swear it's true I've never loved anyone more than I'm loving you Cross my heart hope to die May lightning strike me If I'm telling a lie Cross my heart I swear it's true I've never loved anyone more than I'm loving you Cross my heart hope to die May lightning strike me if I'm telling a lie Cross my heart I swear it's true I've never loved anyone more than I'm loving you
