[Verse 1]
You go to my head
And you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne
[Verse 2]
You go to my head
Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew

[Bridge]

Casts a spell over me
But I say to myself, "Get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it never can be?"
[Verse 3]
You go to my head
With a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
[Outro]
And I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head
