Plague Of Love


Katie Melua & Rick Nowels


My father is a doctor
he never told me
about this problem
that I’ve got

I’ve never had it
it feels awful
it must be something
that I caught

I can’t breathe
I can’t eat
I hallucinate
in my sleep

I get a fever
whenever you’re near
oh God it’s
suddenly clear

Ooh struck down by
the plague of love
sweet poison running
through my blood
and I can’t bear not 
knowing if you even care

My mother is nurse
she can’t help me
though she spent her life
in the service of others

I told her ‘bout my pain
but she was busy downstairs
serving dinner for my brother

Now I can’t 
get out of bed
I’ve got this crazy
notion in my head

I hear a ghost in
my bedroom lurking
is it me or is the
medicine working

Ooh struck down by
the plague of love
sweet poison running
through my blood
and I can’t bear not 
knowing if you even care

Ooh struck down by
the plague of love
sweet poison running
through my blood
and I can’t bear not 
knowing if you even care

Maybe nothing can save me
so come a little closer
I've got a secret just for you

Ooh struck down by
the plague of love
sweet poison running
through my blood
and I can’t bear not 
knowing if you even care

Ooh struck down by the plague of love
struck down by the plague of love
struck down by the plague of love
