Lovestruck Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Staggering home, the headlights throw a shadow up and upon
Friends and loved-ones that have done no wrong
But no longer mean anything to me
[Verse 2]
Oh am I mumbling on, into a crystal glass that echoes a song?
The enticement invites you along
A path of exterior colour
[Pre-Chorus]
But come the morning, shivering and contorting
To border on the brink for just another sink - oh take me down
For one more round
Oh, involve me in libations, stick a rock in my foundation
Pickle my relations, put me on probation - Oh I'll take you down
For one last round
[Chorus]
Oh, Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Now all I want to do is snuggle up to you
A night-cap in the early morning dew
[Verse 3]
Look, what have I become? Distancing myself so far and from
But gazing up, I wave the night boat on
For now it's heaven in deepest Tottenham
[Verse 4]
Oh, what have I done to deserve this fate? It's all gone wrong
Even my cab fares has been and gone
And now I'm lagging in deepest Tottenham
[Pre-Chorus]
But come the morning, shivering and contorting
To border on the brink for just another sink - oh take me down
For one more round
[Chorus]
Yeah, Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
[Bridge]
Frightening, frightening, strike me down with lightning
I've given in to fighting
Now all I want to do is get closer to you
A night-cap in the early morning dew
[Chorus]
Oh, Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Giving her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
I'm giving it my utmost, I've fallen for a lamppost
With my deepest feelings
Now all I want to do is snuggle up to you
A night-cap in the early morning dew
