Lyrics
(Need your love, your LoveDrug, your LoooveDrug
Need your LoveDrug)
River in my eyes, I've got a poem in my throat
I hear the music and it takes me by surprise
Pictures in my mind, they come on faster than they go
Another round, hopin' this one will make me blind
I know this time
I won't escape these thoughts in my head
I need you tonight
But I'm gonna fight the feelin' instead
I don't wanna feel, I don't wanna cry
So I'm gonna dance until I feel alright
I just need a dose of the right stuff
I just need a hit of your LoveDrug
I don't wanna feel, I don't wanna cry
So I'm gonna dance until I feel alright
I just need a dose of the right stuff
I just need a hit of your LoveDrug
Your LoveDrug
Thought we'd last a lifetime, when I'm mumblin' alone
I taste the last words that you spoke to me like wine
My heart is in a bind, if I could bear it on my own
I wouldn't try so hard to numb what's left behind
I know this time
I won't escape these thoughts that I dread
I need you tonight
But I'm gonna fight the feelin' instead
I don't wanna feel, I don't wanna cry
So I'm gonna dance until I feel alright
I just need a dose of the right stuff
I just need a hit of your LoveDrug
I don't wanna feel, I don't wanna cry
So I'm gonna dance until I feel alright
I just need a dose of the right stuff
I just need a hit of your LoveDrug
Love drug
(Need your love, your LoveDrug, your LoveDrug
Need your LoveDrug, need your LoveDrug)
LoveDrug
I just need a dose of the right stuff
I just need a hit of your LoveDrug
Trivia
