Ooh, when your eyes meet mine...pow! pow! Pow!

Am C Am D F Am Am Dm Am
Ooh, I could lose my mind...ow! ow! ow!

F E7 Am Dm F Am
It's a feelin' that things are gonna grow inside me

Am7 D F Am
Til I feel that I'm gonna explode --

E Fdim Am D Am
Ooh, this is what you do to me.

Am7 Dm Dm7 E Fdim E7 A9
Are your lips saying things that you feel in your heart?

If your heart is beating mad - ly, then let the music start.

Hold me, hold me,

Dm Dm+7 F E7 Am
It's heaven, oh it's heaven when you hold me;

F Fdim E7 Am E7 Fdim Am
I want you night and day, I want you here to stay.
