Love Sick
Cherish Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Verse 1:]
Can't change your depression.
As you realize that you're helpless.
Do you mind if I suggest you let it burn?
Take it from a broken hearted scholar.
Who would've bet my bottom dollar we would worked.
But I considered lesson learned.
[Pre-Chorus:]
(I know your heart is breaking down)
Can you feel the pain working?
(I bet you feel so lonely now)
And there's no one there to comfort you.
(Because you cheat the one you call on)
And she left you all alone.
(But the tears you shed you can count on)
But your tears won't let you down so cry, cry, cry.

[Chorus:]
Cry, cry, cry, cry.
Fill me up an ocean.
Cry me up a river.
Boy, I hope, I hope, I hope you feel so lonely.
Bet you wanna call.
Hope your nights are so cold.
Cause you're missing my love.
Got you love sick.
Love sick.
And you know I'm loving it.
Listen closely.
You can hear me laughing.

[Verse 2:]
Sleep now baby.
But when you wake up it'll be the same.
You'll realize nothings changed.
To live in a state of agonizing pain.
It won't last forever.
But now it hurts like hell.
I know it may be cold.
But I, I still can't wish you well.

[Pre-Chorus:]
(I know your heart is breaking down)
Can you feel the pain working?
(I bet you feel so lonely now)
And there's no one there to comfort you.
(Because you cheat the one you call on)
No surprise she ain't there.
(But the tears you shed you can count on)
But your tears won't let you down.

[Chorus:]
Cry, cry, cry, cry.
Fill me up an ocean.
Cry me up a river.
Boy, I hope, I hope, I hope you feel so lonely.
Bet you wanna call.
Hope your nights are so cold.
Cause you're missing my love.
Cry, cry, cry, cry.
Fill me up an ocean.
Cry me up a river.
Boy, I hope, I hope, I hope you feel so lonely.
Bet you wanna call.
Hope your nights are so cold.
Cause you're missing my love.

[Bridge:]
I'm loving that you're hurting.
I'm loving you feel pain.
It's Karma.
It's for certain.
This time you're in the game.
So glad that it's your tears.
Hope that it takes time to heal.
Yes, heartbreak is for real.
Now you see how I feel.

[Chorus:]
Cry, cry, cry, cry. (So won't you cry for me?)
Fill me up an ocean.
Cry me up a river. (Fill me up a river)
Boy, I hope, I hope, I hope you feel so lonely. (Oh)
Bet you wanna call.
Hope your nights are so cold. (I hope)
Cause you're missing my love. (I bet you miss me now)
Cry, cry, cry, cry. (Cry me)
Fill me up an ocean. (I know it hurts I understand)
Cry me up a river. (Oh)
Boy, I hope, I hope, I hope you feel so lonely. (Now feel my pain)(Lonely)
Bet you wanna call.




Hope your nights are so cold. (Oh yeah)
Cause you're missing my love. (Cause you're missing my love)
