FINALLY got hold of a digital version of “I’m in Love” by Kingmaker. I have it on vinyl & tape, and after many years of searching it turns up on the iTunes store of all places! This song has been personal to me since I was a teenager. I love it. Miss you Loz.

I’m In Love

I’m ugly oh it’s tragic
I’m beautifully sad
Thank god for selfish pity
For years that’s all I’ve had
And I hate me oh for saying this
And it’s boring you to tears
Wonderfully miserable is a trap I always feared

Oh – but I crave to be loved she said she said – she said it again
Oh – but I crave to be loved she said she said – and when will this end
the drunken hours
I’m a dying flower – she screamed. she cried. she fell.
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love

I’m alone and oh it’s peaceful
Watch my mental health
I miss you only slightly less than I like being with myself
And I know you worry about me when I’m always in my room
But at the end of the day you think it’s strange that
I’m not longing for you!

Oh – but I crave to be loved she said she said – she said it again
Oh – but I crave to be loved she said she said – and when will this end
the drunken hours
I’m a dying flower – she screamed. she cried. she fell.
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love

If you care what it sounds like, the full song can be heard (free) on last.FM.

I forgot how much I LOVE this song:

I’m ugly oh it’s tragic
I’m beautifully sad
Thank god for selfish pity
For years that’s all I had
And I hate me oh for saying this
Cos it’s boring you to tears
Wonderfully miserable is a trap I always feared

Oh – but I crave to be loved, she said, she said – she said it again
Oh – for I crave to be loved – and when will this end the drunken hours
I’m a dying flower – she screamed she cried she fell.
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love

I’m alone and oh it’s peaceful
Watch my mental health
I miss you only slightly less than I like being with myself
And I know you worry about me, when I’m always in my room
But at the end of the day, you think it’s strange that
I’m not longing for you!

Oh – but I crave to be loved she said she said – she said it again
Oh – for I crave to beloved – and when will this end the drunken hours
I’m a dying flower – she screamed she cried she fell.
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love
I’m in love, I’m in love

I can be emo with tha rest of yous

And when I asked for a separate room
It was late at night, and we’d been driving since noon
But if I’d known how that would sound to you
I would have stayed in your bed for the rest of my life
Just to prove I was right
That it’s harder to be friends than lovers
And you shouldn’t try to mix the two
‘Cause if you do it and you’re still unhappy
Then you know that the problem is you
And it’s true that I stole your lighter
And it’s also true that I lost the map
But when you said that I wasn’t worth talking to
I had to take your word on that
But if you’d known how that would sound to me
You would have taken it back
And boxed it up and buried it in the ground
Boxed it up and buried it in the ground
Boxed it up and buried it in the ground
Burned it up and thrown it away
You put in my hands a loaded gun
And then told me not to fire it
When you did the things you said were up to me
And then accused me of trying to fuck it up
But you’ve never been a waste of my time
It’s never been a drag
So take a deep breath and count back from ten
And maybe you’ll be alright
And the license said you had to stick around until I was dead
But if you’re tired of looking at my face, I guess I already am
But you’ve never been a waste of my time
It’s never been a drag
So take a deep breath and count back from ten
And maybe you’ll be alright
