Plague of Love

[Verse 1]
My father is a doctor, he never told me
About this problem that I've got
I've never had it, it feels awful
It must be something that I caught

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't breathe, I can't eat
I hallucinate in my sleep
I get a fever whenever you're near
Oh, God, it's suddenly clear

[Chorus]
Ooh, struck down by the plague of love
Sweet poison running through my blood
And I can't bear not knowing if you even care

[Verse 2]
My mother is a nurse, she can't help me
Though she spent her life in the service of others
I told her 'bout my pain, but she was busy
Downstairs serving dinner for my brother

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I can't get out of bed
I've got this crazy notion in my head
I hear a ghost in my bedroom lurking
Is it me or is the medicine working?

[Chrous]
Ooh, struck down by the plague of love
Sweet poison running through my blood
And I can't bear not knowing if you even care
Ooh, struck down by the plague of love
Sweet poison running through my blood
And I can't bear not knowing if you even care

[Bridge]
Maybe nothing can save me
So come a little closer, I've got a secret just for you

[Chorus]
Ooh, struck down by the plague of love
Sweet poison running through my blood
And I can't bear not knowing if you even care
Ooh, struck down by the plague of love
Struck down by the plague of love
Struck down by the plague of love

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Plague of love, ooh
