When Love Takes Over Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's complicated, it always is
That's just the way it goes
Feels like I've waited so long for this
I wonder if it shows

[Verse 2]
Head under water, now I can't breathe
It never felt so good
'Cause I can feel it coming over me
I wouldn't stop it if I could

[Chorus X2]
When love takes over, yeah
You know you can't deny
When love takes over, yeah
Something's here tonight

[Verse 3]
Give me a reason, I gotta know
Do you feel it too?
Can't you see me here on overload?
And this time, I blame you

[Verse 4]
Looking out for you to hold my hand
It feels like I could fall
Now love me right like I know you can
We could lose it all
[Chorus]
When love takes over, yeah
You know you can't deny
When love takes over, yeah
Something's here tonight
When love takes over, yeah
Something's here tonight

[Bridge]
And I'll be loving you all the time, it's true
'Cause I wanna make it right with you

[Refrain]
When love takes over (X7)
Over, over, over, over, over, over, over
Over, over, over

[Chorus X2]
When love takes over, yeah
You know you can't deny
When love takes over, yeah
Something's here tonight
Tonight (X17)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
