Lyrics

Fever

my dad woke me from my sleep with the early morning light
Everything so calm and still and yet it was just last night
My fever was so strong in me i thought that i would die
Saw my whole life pass before my eyes
And don't you know
I saw your face so clear to me felt your body next to mine
the memory of you haunts me even now after all this time
I thought that i'd be stronger, thought I'd kicked this into touch
Never thought I'd miss you so much
Oh and it always sets me off

With such a fever everytime you are near
Mass delirium much more than I can bear
there's no drug or medication strong enough to take
For a fever I still don't know how to shake

I don't wanna wait one year I don't wanna wait one day
To have the nerve to call you up and finally get the chance to say
The things i should have told you, all the things you should have known
Do you never know a love till it's gone?
Oh but now the flood has come

chorus

And I just can't control it if everytime we meet
We've gotta act like strangers on the street
