Lovesick

NOTHING CAN SUM UP MY FEELINGS, I'M KEPT OCCUPIED,

THOUGH I SIT HERE LOOKING OUT OF A MISTY WINDOW,

WATCHING THE RAIN FALL BY,

TEMPORARILY MISSING MY GIRLFRIEND, GOT ANOTHER WEEK TO GO,

'TIL I SEE HER SMILING FACE AGAIN, IN THE MEANTIME I FEEL LOW,

AND I WISH TIME WOULD FLY BY QUICK AND I COULD RETURN HOME,

IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T LIKE IT HERE, I WRITE LETTERS AND I'VE GOT A PHONE

BUT IT'S NOT THE SAME AS BEING, BECAUSE SEEING IS BELIEVING,

IT'S NOT THE SAME AS BEING WITH HER.

I'M LOVESICK FOR HER, SHE'S LOVESICK FOR ME,

HOMESICK DON'T COME INTO IT EVEN THOUGH I'M ON DAY THREE,

CHRONIC INFATUATION, CHRONIC IS TOO WEAK A WORD,

CAN'T GT HER OFF MY MIND CAN'T ET HER OFF MY HEAD AND NO WAY

IS IT ABSURD,

AND I WISH TIME WOULD FLY BY QUICK AND I COULD RETURN HOME,

IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T LIKE IT HERE, I WRITE LETTERS AND I'VE GOT A PHONE
BUT IT'S NOT THE SAME AS BEING, BECAUSE SEEING IS BELIEVING,
IT'S NOT THE SAME AS BEING WITH HER.

NOW IT HAS STOPPED RAINING, THE SUN'S BREAKING THROUGH THE SKY,

NOTHING'S GONNA CHEER ME UP THOUGH,

AND I'M STILL IN THE MOOD FOR A NICE LONG CRY,

GENTLY IN THE BACKGROUND, I CAN HEAR THE CLOCK CHIME SIX,

HOPING SHE'LL WALK INTO THE ROOM SAYING

'JAMES , DON'T FEEL LOVESICK ...'

AND I WISH TIME WOULD FLY BY QUICK AND I COULD RETURN HOME,
IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T LIKE IT HERE, I WRITE LETTERS AND I'VE GOT A PHONE
BUT IT'S NOT THE SAME AS BEING, BECAUSE SEEING IS BELIEVING,
IT'S NOT THE SAME AS BEING WITH HER.
