Staggering home
The headlights throw a shadow up and upon
Friends and loved ones that have done no wrong
But no longer mean anything to me

Oh, am I mumbling on
Into a crystal glass that echoes a song?
The enticement invites you along
A path of exterior colour

But come the morning shivering and contorting
To border on the brink for just another sink
Oh, take me down for one more round

Oh, involve me in libation, stick a rock in my foundation
I pick all my relations, put me on probation
Oh, I'll take you down for one last round

Oh, lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Given her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Given her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings

Now all I want to do is snuggle up to you
A night cap in the early morning dew

Look what have I become
Distancing myself so far and from
But gazing up I wave the night boat on
For now it's heaven in deepest Tottenham

Oh, what have I done to deserve this fate?
It's all going wrong
Even the cab fare has been and gone
And now I'm lagging in deepest Tottenham

But come the morning shivering and contorting
To border on the brink for just another sink
Oh, take me down for one more round

Yeah, lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Given her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Given her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings

Fight me, fright me, strike me down with lightning
I've given in to fight you
Now all I want to do is get closer to you
A night cap in the early morning dew

Oh, lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Given her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings
Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
Given her my utmost, spilling out my deepest feelings

Lovestruck, I've fallen for a lamppost
I'm giving it my utmost, I've fallen for a lamppost
With my deepest feelings

Now all I want to do is snuggle up to you
A night cap in the early morning dew
