"medicine" lyrics

Somewhere in Texas, late October
Adrienne Lenker's playing solo
Call you on FaceTime
And you cry on FaceTime
Been about six weeks, longest ever
I wouldn't choose six weeks, I would choose never
Call you on FaceTime
And we cry on FaceTime

But I know the second I get home

You'll throw me into bed again
Loving you is medicine
I want it every day and every night
An overdose of you brings me to life, oh
I'm not even sure if I can die
Better than heaven-sent
Loving you's medicine
Doesn't even matter what we do
Walking through the aisle of the grocery store with you
Feels like the aisle with the preacher and the pews

You're somewhere in New York, I'm in Arizona
A couple thousand miles and a couple dirty photos
I tell you that you look nice
But I want you in real life
So much time apart and so little together
We even bought a dog, little Cubby doesn't get it
I'll tell you that I miss you
But you already know I miss you

And I know the second I get home

I'll throw you into bed again
Loving you is medicine
I want it every day and every night
An overdose of you brings me to life, oh
I'm not even sure if I can die
Better than heaven-sent
Loving you's medicine
Doesn't even matter what we do
Walking through the aisle of the grocery store with you
Feels like the aisle with the preacher and the pews

Don't get used to being away from me
Don't get used to being away
Throw me into bed again
Loving you is medicine
(Please prepare for uncontrollable joy)

Throw me into bed again
Loving you is medicine
I want it every day and every night
An overdose of you brings me to life, oh
I'm not even sure if I can die
Better than heaven-sent
Loving you's medicine
Doesn't even matter what we do
Walking through the aisle of the grocery store with you
Feels like the aisle with the preacher and the pews
