Lyrics of Purple Haze

Purple haze all in my brain
lately things don't seem the same
Acting funny and i don't know why
excuse me while i kiss the sky

Purple haze all around
don't know if I'm going up or down
am i happy or in misery?
whatever at is a girl put a spell on me

Purple haze all in my eyes
don't know if it's day or night
you've got me blowin', blowin' my mind
is it tomorrow or just the end of time

help me, help me
i don't know
cant go on like this

blow my mind
