Your love for me was nothing but a mystery,
Just something only captured in a dream.
Whoa, then suddenly
It was hitting me,
Right between the eyes
I wasn’t looking for a love explosion,
But I must have been a target my oh my.
Cause when I least expected it,
I took a direct hit,
Right between the eyes
You, you shattered my resistance, yes its true,
you battered my defenses what could I do?
I’m running from the heat between me and you.
[chorus]
You hit me with a million volts,
You nail me with a lightning bolt,
Oh, baby, you knock me cold.
You’re love zapped me, right between the eyes.
Now nothing’s going to cool down my desire,
‘Cause I’m jumpin’ from the fat into the fire,
Love bug has bitten me,
And you’re hitting me,
Right between the eyes
And now each time I think about you I don’t know how,
I ever did without you, spin me ’round,
And I’ll never get my feet back on the ground.
[Chorus]
Oh the power of your love is much too strong,
You tell me I’m,
[Chorus]
You hit me with a million volts,
You nail me with a lightning bolt,
Oh, baby, you knock me cold.
You’re love zapped me, right between the eyes.
You hit me with a million volts,
You nail me with a lightning bolt,
Oh, baby, you knock me cold.
You’re love zapped me, right between the eyes.
