Lyrics Symptomatic Love - Martha and the Muffins

Symptomatic Love

Move, I can’t move
Talk, I can’t talk
Poise, no poise
I’ve got love shock
One sight of you, not a thing I can do
No charm, no grace, I fall flat on my face
I wish you’d look this way, then what would I say
My mind would freeze, I feel weak in the knees
Pound, heart pound
Straight, think straight
Breathe, I can’t breathe
Wait, I can’t wait
Head spinning round, can’t touch the ground
I’ve got no explanation for this sudden elation
Ask me anything I’ll consent, it’s so adolescent
What is happening to me, is this love?
Can’t be!
Is this the way that love is supposed to be?
I can’t seem to catch my breath, this isn’t me
The more that I try to hide it, it dominates me!
Hold
Take hold hot
Hot and cold grip
I can’t grip
'Cause down
I slip
I didn’t mean to do it
But I’ve fallen in love with you
I tried to show resistance and
I tried to keep my distance from you
Symptomatic love
Hope it’s not the same
I wasn’t looking for romance
But I didn’t really have a chance with you
I made an effort to avoid it
In the past my heart’s been toyed with, now there’s you
Symptomatic love
Here I go again
It’s just a habit I can’t break it
Though I’ve tried and tried to shake it, just won’t do
Sometimes the price of love is much too steep
I can’t stop now I’m in too deep with you
Symptomatic love
Hope it’s not the same
Symptomatic love
'Cause here I go again
