The Drug of Love


I'm spinning.

Is this a drug?

'Cause I'm addicted,

Can never get enough.

Just one hit,

Yet, I'm craving more.

I'm either flying or falling,

Don't let me hit the floor.

'Cause just a few words,

Set me off.

I got too high,

Right to the top.

Don't let me down,

Please meet me here.

Supply my need,

'Cause sinking I fear.

Just a smile,

Only your eyes.

Is this hallucinating?

Don't tell me goodbyes.

I'm not sure, it even began.

Just one more hit,

Before I land.

Let me fall victim to it.

I'm not ready to quit.

The very first time,

I want every bit.
