Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't want it
I don't want it
If there's a remedy
I'll run from it
From it
Think about it all the time
'Cause I love you
I've got the sweetest hangover
I don't wanna get over
Sweetest hangover
Yeah, I don't wanna get over
I don't wanna get
I don't wanna get over
Ooh, I don't need no cure
I don't need no cure
I don't need no cure
Sweet lovin'
Sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Don't call a doctor (sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)
Don't call her momma
Don't call her preacher (love)
No, I don't need it

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
Love Hangover is a classic song by Diana Ross that was released in 1976. The song is about a hangover that is caused by being in love. The lyrics may seem simple, but they are much deeper than they appear. In the first stanza, the singer says that she doesn't want a cure or a remedy for her love hangover. This means that she is willing to continue feeling the effects of being in love even though it hurts her. She admits that she thinks about her lover all the time and doesn't want to get over her love addiction. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I've got the sweetest hangover," signifying that being in love is like being drunk and unable to control one's emotions. The final stanza shows the singer's desperation for love. She is not interested in getting help from anyone, not even religious leaders or medical professionals. She is happy to continue feeling the pain of love as long as she continues to feel the love itself.
Overall, the song is about the highs and lows of being in a romantic relationship. It expresses the intense feeling of love as well as the pain that can come with it. The singer's unwillingness to seek a cure for her love hangover shows how addictive love can be and how it can take over someone's life completely.
