My head is spinning in circles
But a sip of liquor hasn't touched my lips
I can't feel my body
Even though I've never been so sober
All I can hear is the sound of my laughter
And I haven't had a drink in days

Because when I look back at you
Your big blue eyes
Your half grin
Looking back at me
I realize this is what people mean
When they say you get drunk on your lover

You're not mine yet
But I don't think my liver
Could endure the love of you

I don't know if this heart of mine
Could endure the hangover
When you leave
