I would sacrifice anything come what might For the sake of having you near In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night And repeats how it yells in my ear

Don't you know, little foolYou never can win Use your mentality Wake up to reality But each time that I do just the thought of you Makes me stop before I begin 'Cause I've got you under my skin

The song continues with the singer struggling against, yet ultimately accepting, a deep infatuation, featuring lyrics about trying not to give in, sacrificing anything to be near the loved one, and ignoring a "warning voice" to surrender to the feeling.
