Lyric I need the high

Dr. Hook - I need the high

She left without warning me of where or when she d go
She d never knew the way my love would grow
Now broken glass is on the floor, each piece reflects her face
I need the high but I can t stand the taste

I need the high to keep me from losing my mind
I hope I can get by, it happens every time
And I wonder where she goes to find the one who ll take my place
I need the high but I can t stand the taste

She told me that my sweet love was hard to be without
But the sweetness turned to bitter in my mouth
And the bottle s all I ve got to hold, but it won t say goodbye
I can t stand this taste but Lord I need the high

I need the high to keep me from losing my mind
I hope I can get by, it happens every time
And I wonder where she goes to find the one who ll take my place
I need the high but I can t stand the taste

I need the high but I can t stand the taste
