Love Stricken
from Falling Doves by The Intricate Melody
lyrics
Just another trying to fuel my fire
Bored from looking at a coin in the mirror
Just another tryna make my mind up
What I do to reflect my strength
Dear remind me I
said I'd be back in flames
I'll pay you with love
Every which way
Some brush with the nightlife
Girl for you I pray
The lights upon the city shine
About this your solitary maze
And I feared the worst
That my heart would break
Girl, you keep me looking
At the star you've made
Pull the pin
Break a string for a living
Girl you've got me
To murder the rhythm
Kick the trip that we
shared joint switching
Bet you know that it's
Bad for your system
No more nights alone
Girl, I'm gonna run until
I'm right at home
Throw your voodoo doll
Never stop telling yourself
Life is bountiful
Some want it to last here
And some have already let it go
They leave the stars cut in their shape
And give them no more time to show
Girl, you keep me looking
At the start, you've made
You're my coin in the mirror
How we're sold with a touch of pain
Bite the bullet and alert me now
Just to waste no want, not like yourself
Tell now you don't sleep at all
Cause I'm not the dream you've been
Waiting for
Girl, you keep me looking at
The star you've made
You're my coin in the mirror
All the more you're the song I play
Through all that we've cast aside
It suited me some to provide
Just another keeping dreams alive
Much more than meets the eye
When you go-go
I couldn't show you why I grieve
Girl, I love you and there's
Not enough for me
In a chokehold that seemed
the way to be
This the song I play now
Cause I'm love-stricken
Bored from looking at a coin in the mirror
Just another tryna make my mind up
What I do to reflect my strength
Dear remind me I
said I'd be back in flames
I'll pay you with love
Every which way
Some brush with the nightlife
Girl for you I pray
The lights upon the city shine
About this your solitary maze
And I feared the worst
That my heart would break
Girl, you keep me looking
At the star you've made
Pull the pin
Break a string for a living
Girl you've got me
To murder the rhythm
Kick the trip that we
shared joint switching
Bet you know that it's
Bad for your system
No more nights alone
Girl, I'm gonna run until
I'm right at home
Throw your voodoo doll
Never stop telling yourself
Life is bountiful
Some want it to last here
And some have already let it go
They leave the stars cut in their shape
And give them no more time to show
Girl, you keep me looking
At the start, you've made
You're my coin in the mirror
How we're sold with a touch of pain
Bite the bullet and alert me now
Just to waste no want, not like yourself
Tell now you don't sleep at all
Cause I'm not the dream you've been
Waiting for
Girl, you keep me looking at

All the more you're the song I play

Girl, I love you and there's

This the song I play now
Cause I'm love-stricken
