My heart is beating fast, sun is beating down
Your song is in my head and it keeps spinning around
Like walking streets of gold with diamonds in my eyes
I can't explain it how the world just comes to life
Sing it over, I'll sing it over
No doubt, no doubt
Oh You make me feel
Sing it over, I'll sing it over
No doubt, no doubt
You make me feel this way, yes
You make me feel this way
So close to something, something I've never seen
Sleeping awake, maybe it's somewhere in between
Felt like a fugitive staring at the gun
No longer chasing me, no, I don't have to run
Sing it over, I'll sing it over
No doubt, no doubt
Oh You make me feel
Sing it over, I'll sing it over
No doubt, no doubt
You make me feel this way
You make me feel this way
You make me feel this way
You make me feel this way
Like an ocean wave in the wind
It's a moment I won't forget
Like an ocean wave in the wind
Close my eyes, I'm a child again
You make me feel this way, yeah
You make me feel this way, yeah
Sing it over, sing it over
Oh, You make me feel this way
