There are words I carry in my heart 

Words I carry in my heart 

Clung to 

Glad of 

Uncommonly held 

Peculiarly interlaced 

Remembered and felt 

Am I lovesick? 

It’s as if love’s the only virtue there is 

Am I lovesick? 



The plot thins, emotions get frayed 

Attractions move through the shade 

Done for 

Delight in 

And forever held 

Influence 

Given life 

Remembered and felt 

Am I lovesick? 

It’s not as if love’s the only virtue there is 

Am I lovesick? 



It’s nothing to hate 

Who can’t hate can 

Got nothing ‘gainst hate 

It’s all the planning 

It gets hard to remember 

We’re best when we’re tender 



There are words I carry in my heart 

Words I carry in my heart 

Words I carry in my heart 

Clung to 

Glad of 

Uncommonly held 

Peculiarly interlaced 

Remembered and felt 

Am I lovesick? 

Maybe love is the only virtue there is 

Am I lovesick? 

Lovesick, lovesick 

‘Love is the only virtue there is’ (Northrop Frye) 

Am I lovesick?
