Love Thing

Went to the doctor to see what he would say

Told him I couldn’t sleep my heart was racking with pain

Broke out in a cold sweat lying in my bed

My mouth was dry

My fever high had a spinnin’ in my head

Can’t find a single thing to take away the pain

Everything I tried to do, I tried and tried again

But all it seems to do is take away my pride

I looked for you, but whats the use

Your loving ain’t prescribed

It’s a love thing, that’s what I got

It’s a love thing, no there ain’t no shots

It’s a love thing, never been no cure

The only thing to cure my ills, is make sweet love to you

Three weeks later, I don’t feel I’ve improved

No matter what I do, I can’t get close to you

Can’t find no treatment, no major surgery

To take away the empty space and put you next to me

It’s a love thing, lyin’ on my own

It’s a love thing, waiting by the phone

It’s a love thing, I don’t need no nurse

Gonna help this man

Hold his hand only makes it worse

That thing that makes him heal

But no matter how I try I feel

That you just want to play this game with me

Now you and I have finally put things right

But I still need to dream, morning, noon and night

I feel much better than I ever did before

No matter how I try

I seem to find I just can’t get off the floor

It’s a love thing, that’s what I got

It’s a love thing, no there ain’t no shots

It’s a love thing, never been no cure

The only thing to cure my ills, is make sweet love to you

It’s a love thing, lyin’ on my own

It’s a love thing, waiting by the phone

It’s a love thing, I don’t need no nurse

Gonna help this man

Hold his hand only makes it worse

It’s a love thing, that’s what I got

It’s a love thing, no there ain’t no shots

It’s a love thing, never been no cure
