Gang Starr - Lovesick lyrics

rate me

Verse 1

Strangely enough I've been struck

Affected by her smile

And yo, her style is worthwhile

And knowing that I'm deep like a river

I feel I should give her

Things that those others can't deliver

Contrary to what I had wished

it seems that I've been dissed

But hey, I don't want to miss this

wonderful opportunity

My boys they try schoolin' me

But see I know what I want

Someone who'll be there for the whole nine

This honey is so fine

But now she's hung up the line

Upset because I told her I'm busy

She made like a grizzly

And started chewin' my head off

Screamin' that I spend more time with friends

And also, she said I ruined her weekend

I said "I know the stuff we had planned

but please understand

Right now I'm loungin' with my man"

I guess I didn't realize I'd hurt her

She said I had the nerve to

just neglect her like that

Then she started bringing up past things

and she kept asking

how come our love isn't lasting

I said, "Hey baby, please calm down

cuz I'm still around

and it's for you that my heart pounds

Can I call you later on?

You say I treat you wrong?

But why you flippin' on me?"

She said something else and then click

Left me alone on the phone with the tone

And now I'm lovesick

Verse 2

Relationships can grip with the pain

Arguments in the crib, in the streets, on the train

I'm crazy fed but then still

When she ain't there I feel sad, I feel ill

Frowning cuz I'm down in the dumps

The other night I took her out

so she could shake her rump

But after we were there for a few

Some girls that I knew

Stepped up and asked me to come to

a party they were havin' at their house

I looked at my girl, and yo, she started walkin' out

I said "Hey love, just wait for a second

And won't you just check it?

It's all a part of makin' records

Those were just some friends in the business

No need to get angry

So listen up while I kick this

And what about the things we discussed

about havin' trust?

What's all this attitude stuff?

Now hon, you know that I wouldn't play you

But time after time, you let your jealousy sway you

Hey don't you turn your back like that

Come on, this is wack

You're heated up like a thermostat"

Then she stepped off in a whirlwind

and I don't know when

or if I'm gonna see her again

I coulda sworn she was the right one to pick

But now...man I'm just lovesick
