She seems to have cast quite a spell on you.
You've fallen head over heels in love with her, haven't you?
She's really got a hold on you, doesn't she?
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "Heart was really getting too repetitive, and besides, it's not obvious yet that the young man has fallen in love. I like this 'quite a spell' turn, I think it matches the situation... Thank you all!"
