Now I never thought that I'd be losing sleep at night over you
Now I don't know what to do
I promised myself that I would not cry over you
Now I feel it all inside
Thoughts of you
Keep driving me crazy
And if I don't sleep
Then it won't even faze me
Some people call it love
I call it sprung on you - oh
Here we go
Here we go
I'm coming again
You got me messed up
I'm sprung on it
Here we go
Here we go
I'm coming again
You got me messed up
I'm sprung on it
I thought it would be easy to get over you
Now I see that it's not in me
I think I'm going crazy, going out of my mind trying
to find someone to take your place
Thoughts of you
Keep driving me crazy
And if I don't sleep
Then it won't even faze me
Some people call it love
I call it sprung on you - oh
Hook
When I'm all alone
There ain't nothing I can do
All I do is think of you
Ain't about to take my mind off you
You got me going round and round
My whole world's upside down
Let me love you baby, let me love you
Uhmmmm...here we go
Here we go

Sprung On It
Babyface's 'Sprung On It' stands as a quintessential example of his signature mid-1980s R&B and pop fusion, characterized by lush string arrangements and smooth vocal delivery. As a lead single from his self-titled debut album, the track exemplifies the polished production style that defined his early career and established him as a premier songwriter and performer. The song's enduring appeal lies in its melodic structure and the way it blends romantic themes with a sophisticated, danceable groove that became a staple of the era's radio rotation. It remains a defining recording in the catalog of one of the most prolific songwriters of the decade.
