LOVESICK

Doctor, doctor I’m feeling awfully ill

When he’s gone it’s like my world is gone too

And I’ve got serious symptoms of withdrawal

My fever’s burning like a nasty flu.

 

Doctor, doctor I am losing my head

I’m addicted and I can’t get enough

In a cold achy sweat I’m stuck in bed

And desperate for another dose of love.

 

Doctor, doctor you tell me there’s no cure

No pill or remedy to ease my pain

I guess I’ll always be left wanting more

Until my last day when I go insane.

 

Love’s a disease and I’m under the weather

But it’s the only sickness that makes you feel better.
