I’m walking through streets that are dead
Walking, walking with you in my head
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
And the clouds are weeping

Did I hear someone tell a lie?
Did I hear someone’s distant cry?
I spoke like a child; you destroyed me with a smile
While I was sleeping

Five Seasons Center

I’m sick of love but I’m in the thick of it
This kind of love I’m so sick of it

I see, I see lovers in the meadow
I see, I see silhouettes in the window
I watch them ’til they’re gone and they leave me hanging on
To a shadow

I’m sick of love; I hear the clock tick
This kind of love; I’m love sick

Sometimes the silence can be like the thunder
Sometimes I feel like I’m being plowed under
Could you ever be true? I think of you
And I wonder

I’m sick of love; I wish I’d never met you
I’m sick of love; I’m trying to forget you

Just don’t know what to do
I’d give anything to be with you

  1. Love Sick has really grown on me. I used to dislike it,along with “Disease Of Conceit”and “Most Of The Time” because of the over-repetition of one line,which seemed as if Bob was deliberately easting his talent. Also,the thread-bare”lyrics”had me wondering if Bob had come to the end of the line.However,it takes on a life of its own in performance and thank God Bob rarely (deliberately?) mangles it.

  2. Fine version marred only by the modern scourge of loutish audience “wooing” during the performance.
