Baby, I wish it were different
My words, my visions
Our world beginning
And now it is splitting in two
Even when I think I suffer
I think of your kids, your mother
Then I have to commend my lover
When I think of how it must feel to be you

In my eyes, nobody gets it
In my heart and my defense
I'm just the lovesick
Something we can't resist

First, I'm certain, then I'm on the fence
Distant, then I'm in your skin
It's endless how this pain persists
I'm just the lovesick

You know I think of all the times I've been lonesome
And I think of all the times I've cried
You know I really could've used that shoulder
You know I really need you by my side
You know I think about it every night
And I can't help but count the days
You know I just can't seem to find
All the words I need to say

In my eyes, nobody gets it
In my heart and my defense
I'm just the lovesick
Something we can't resist

First, I'm certain, then I'm on the fence
Distant, then I'm in your skin
It's endless how this pain persists
I'm just the lovesick
