Gang Starr Lyrics of the Lovesick track

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
