"Hooked On You" Lyrics by Steve Raines (@Unlikely Buddha)

Image
In the variations of  C G Am F (Verse 1) You're a mystery,  a puzzle to be solved, Your beauty's like a treasure  to be found. I'm drawn to you  like moth to flame, Can't help but fall for you,  my heart's  been bound. (Chorus) Oh, mysterious woman,  I'm hooked on you, Like a song that's always playing,  I can't get you out of my head. Oh, mysterious woman,  I'm entranced by you. Like a dream  that I can't wake up from,  I'm lost in your bed. (Verse 2) Your eyes are like  a deep blue sea, Your lips are like  a ripe red berry.

Oh, mysterious woman,  I'm hooked on you. Like a dream  that I can't wake up from,  I'm lost in your bed. (Bridge) I don't know your name,  I don't know your...

The Talmud, the Koran, and the Bible are three of the most important religious texts in the world, and they all have a lot to say about seeking justice, dealing with adversity, and getting along.
