I've Got You Under My Skin

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin

I'd tried so not to give in
I said to myself, "This affair never will go so well"
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well
I've got you under my skin

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear

"Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality"
But each time that I do just the thought of you makes me stop
Before I begin 'cause I've got you under my skin

I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, how it yells in my ear

"Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?
Why not use your mentality, step up, wake up to reality"
But each time I do just the thought of you makes me stop
Just before I begin 'cause I've got you under my skin
Yes, I've got you under my skin

--song written by Cole Porter

Never Free of Lost Lovers

Some things just don't go away

You can clear your blood

With a massive flood

Of the waters of forgetting

It can be utterly upsetting

To find your heart always in danger

Of a near-fatal collapse

And again after that an aftershock relapse.

You can never be a total stranger

Even after you've lost her

Once you found her

She was yours for a span

And even now she can

Move you to tremor & tears

As your love's low embers reach

Across those many years

To flare again
