When you don't say "I love you" back to me
The rest of the night is spent in rhetorical misery
Like the whole world's waiting just to find out
What the last sentence meant, where we are heading now

When you don't say my name, you just wave me over
To talk to your new friend, to have me to show her
How cool you are for kissing another girl
And you make that eye contact that says "Talk to you later"

And I stay through it all
Because I'm
Lovesick
and I'm loving it
Laying with you, doing shit that we do
I'm completely in love
In love with you

When you don't respond to my twenty-one texts
I freak way out and make myself sick
Like my whole world's made up of waiting for you
To respond and say "I love you too"

And I wait for the fall
Because I'm
Lovesick
and I'm loving it
Laying with you, doing shit that we do
I'm completely in love
In love with you

You hug me when you're happy
You ignore me when you're mad
You ignore me when you're sad

You kiss me for a good mood
You stare at me when it's bad
I love you though it's bad
Because I'm

Lovesick
and I'm loving it
Laying with you, doing shit that we do
I'm completely in love with you
and I'm through
