Lyrics

Love Hangover / Heartbreaker

If there's a cure for this
I don't want it, I don't want it
And if there's a remedy
I'll run from it, from it
I think about it all the time
Never let it out of my mind
'Cause I love you

I've got the sweetest hangover
I don't wanna get over
The sweetest hangover
I don't wanna get over
I don't wanna get, I don't wanna get
Over

Heartbreaker, you got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back incessantly
Oh, why did you have to run your game on me
I should have known right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

Oh, your love's so good
I don't wanna let go
And although I should
I can't leave you alone
'Cause you're so disarming
I'm caught up in the midst of you
And I cannot resist at all

Boy, if I do
The things you want me to
The way I used to do
Would you love me, baby
Or leave me feeling used?
Would you go and break my heart?

Heartbreaker, you got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back incessantly
Oh, why did you have to run your game on me?
I should have known right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

It's a shame to be
So euphoric and weak
When you smile at me
And you tell me the things
That you know persuade me to relinquish my love to you
But I cannot resist at all

Heartbreaker, you got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back incessantly
Oh, why did you have to run your game on me?
I should have known right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

I don't need no cure
I don't need no cure
I don't need no cure
Sweet love hangover

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet love hangover, love hangover
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet love
Love, love

Don't call the doctor
Don't call my mama
Don't call the preacher
No, I don't need it
I don't want it

(Love to love ya) I love to love ya, baby
(Love to love ya) I love to love ya, baby
Sweet love, I need you
(Love to love ya) Love me, love me
Love me, love me
If there's a cure for this, I don't want it

If there's a cure for this, I don't want it
I don't want it, no
Don't want, don't need
'Cause if there's a cure for this, I don't need it

Heartbreaker, you got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back incessantly
Oh, why did you have to run your game on me?
I should have known right from the start
You'd go and break my heart
