lyrics

(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh)

(Ran out of you)
(Ran out of you)

One day my heart stopped beating,
I went to the doctors they said they could do nothing.
But on the way home, I met you.
When I looked into your eyes,
You did something to me,
And now all I can say is...

You are my medicine,
You keep me strong when I am weak.
When you’re around, I stay alive.
I don’t know, no, I don’t know what I would do if I ever ran out of you.

(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ran out of you)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh)

I went back to the doctors and they said
“No more, there’s no prescription for love.
You better watch how you use it,
‘Cause the truth is it’s a powerful drug.”
And now…

You are my medicine,
You keep me strong when I am weak.
When you’re around, I stay alive.
I don’t know, no, I don’t know what I would do if I ever ran out of you.

Now I’m looking on every street corner for the dealer
Who can sell me some “love”.
See the problem is you’re just too good to be legal,
But god knows I’ll pay the price

You are my medicine,
You keep me strong when I am weak.
When you’re around, I stay alive.
I don’t know, no, I don’t know what I would do if I ever ran out of you.

(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ran out of you)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ran out of you)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh)
(Ran out of you)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh)

about

Prince Pheonix Runcorn, UK

Began to write music upon turning 12, Starting a debut album Birth Of The Bird near the time my grandma passed on. Consisting of songs based on real life events that happened during early 2008, with later albums, continuing along that theme. I produce songs that are full of emotion, so they end up becoming stories more than songs. ... more
