Just a girl living in the City.
Hey baby, it’s three in the morning Time has just flown by without any warning But I need to get my daily dose of you Before I have caught a love flu Like a medicine? No, more like a drug Embracing me like a gentle warm hug One dose puts a smile on my face Two doses steal my heart away without a trace But how it torments and suffocates When I can’t have it, it agitates Yet the more I am used to its bittersweet The more I need to consume to defeat I would breakdown if you take it away from me As you can already clearly see You are the drug that I abuse The remedy to my sickness as I deduce So please, if you are not harmful to my body I would like to maintain this dangerous harmony Getting addicted is not an issue As long as you are the one that I cling to

The Drug Abuser
I try to take my mind off you As I slowly heal from this hidden scar Because I have caught a love flu. A fleeting summer fling comes true But who would have known it could go so far I try to take my mind off you. I didn’t sense any slight hint or clue Warning me to stay off the radar Because I have caught a love flu. The growing distance becomes cruel Tempting us to be love martyrs I try to take my mind off you. You said there is nothing we can do But to look back to this as a memoir All because I have caught a love flu. Thought I won’t be feeling so blue As I silently light on my last cigar I try to make my mind off you Because I have caught a love flu.
