  • You say that love is a chemical
    Feel it down to the soul
    Well, well, we-well, well, well
    What I really, really want to know
    Is if my mind's in control
    Well, well, we-well, well, well

    I'm so high
    Love is a chemical
    I'm so high
    Love is a chemical
    Start it
    Start it again

    A random thought
    A memory
    A tidal wave
    We met until I'm on my knees
    A sudden change in everything
    Don't know when I was leaving
    Feeling well and free
    You find love just a fantasy
    Beautiful and ugly as a life can be
    I don't lose any sleep honestly
    Well, well, we-well, well, well

    I'm so high
    Love is a chemical
    I'm so high
    Love is a chemical
    Start it
    Start it again

    Well, well, we-well, well, well
    Well, well, we-well, well, well
    I can feel it minute by minute by day
    I don't want it running all night this way
    Why you got to get it on my mind this way?
    Well, well, we-well, well, well

    Saying what I feel
    What can I tell you? Don't know
    Why you have to be like that?
    Alligator teardrops fall
    Love is a love is a chemical
    Burning wears off like a chemical
    I don't need anyone to turn me on
    I don't need anyone, no

    And when the feeling is over
    There's no explanation
    Shock to the system
    Infatuation
    Shake like a flower
    Strange affirmation
    Crown of illusion
    Start it
    Start it again

    Saying what I feel (I'm so high)
    What can I tell you? Don't know
    Why you have to be like that? (Love is a chemical)
    Alligator teardrops fall
    Well, well, we-well, well, well
    Love is a love is a chemical (I'm so high)
    Burning wears off like it never could
    I don't need anyone to turn me on (Love is a chemical)
    I don't need anyone no
    Start it again Writer/s: Beck Hansen
