"Love Starvation" lyrics

Nick Lowe & Los Straitjackets Lyrics

"Love Starvation"

I woke up early with love starvation
Hugging my pillow all alone in a rickety bed
Baby, if it's any consolation
The needle's in the red

It only hit me when I went by a mirror
That's when I saw what was written all over my face
I'm suffering love starvation
A very bad case

I'll tell you something about love starvation
It's like a prison in your mind you're locked up in
Disappointment, desperation
Your two old friends

Make it stop, make it stop
If only I could turn back the clock
Make it so, make it so
'Cause I tell you that I can't exist in a world like this

Show me a love that comes in colors
Or even one I can dream in black and white
Any love is better than no love
So any love's right

Make it stop, make it stop
If only I could turn back the clock
Make it so, make it so
'Cause I tell you that I can't exist in a world like this

I woke up early with love starvation
Hugging my pillow all alone in a rickety bed
Baby, if it's any consolation
The needle's in the red
The needle's in the red
Love starvation, baby
It's got me on the back foot
It's put me in a dark and lonely place
It's got me never knowing
If I'm ever going to start living again
Love starvation, baby
Love, love, love...
