Boy, your case is serious

Withdrawal from me, yeah

I bring you the gentle cure

I treat you with such affection, come

The symptom is forgetting the slips I made

The times I fought with you

In your mind, only the kisses I gave will fit

The marks I left

The anger you feel says you won't come back

But you got hooked on the drug, you want to kiss my mouth

Makes your reason stop, your heart scream

You got hooked on the drug, you want to kiss my mouth, yah
