Never lost that feeling
Once I got that feeling for you
I knew
That there was something special
You had a certain spark about you
It's true

I cannot be more sincere
Boy, whenever you are near
I just lose my mind
I get weak inside
Swear I can't do anything and I
Chorus
I can't help myself
I'm in love with you and nobody else
It's real as hell
And I can't deny it's how I feel
