Drunk On Love

(album: The Sweetest Illusion - 1994)

I was dreaming when I jumped the lights
Busy scaling dizzy heights
Hummed a somewhat strangely familiar tune
My eyes as wide as open books
And from my ears upon two hooks
A big smile was hanging there like a crescent moon

It sometimes comes as quite a shock
When the gods of love decide to knock
You're in a state of disarray
Just when you least expect it
You'll never know a better day

Day dreaming fever taking over
No misdemeanor stone cold sober

The officer who stopped me said
"lucky you didn't wind up dead!"
And he guessed that I was over and above
I hoped he'd only caution me
And i made a plea for clemency
On the grounds that I was only drunk on love

It sometimes comes as quite a shock
When the gods of love decide to knock
You're in a state of disarray
Just when you least expect it
You'll never know a better day

Day dreaming fever taking over
No misdemeanor stone cold sober
