from some song idea notes I wrote last summer. Breakthrough on this was using an electric guitar for the first time, and even playing a simple lead guitar line! Used loops in my Studio One DAW to arrange it.
1. Lately I ain't felt too sober, though I'm as dry as dirt.
I just might fall right over - it wouldn't even hurt.
My head is woozy, like I'm up in the clouds
Playing power ballads, blastin' 'em loud!
Chorus:
Love sticks! Love Stones! Love burns! Love bones.
You better be at your door when it knocks cuz
Love Rocks! Love Rocks! Oh
Love Rocks! Love Rocks!
2. Lately I don't even know me, don't recognize my face
maybe there's someone else living in my place.
I'm so uncertain, not sure of anything.
What do I eat? What do I wear? Do I run? Do I sing?
Repeat Chorus
Bridge: I'm so obsessed and crazy for you
Slap my cheek and tell me it's true.
3. Lately I ain't been sleepin' and I can tell you why
This secret I've been keepin' it keeps me flyin' high.
I run around, grounds shifting under my feet.
Can't function without you - yeah, I'm incomplete.
Repeat chorus

Awww yeah, this is a fun rock song! Lots of great energy! And I love, Love, LOVE that hook/title! Favorite line is "Love sticks! Love Stones! Love burns! Love bones." of course followed by the hook! This is a ton of fun to listen to! I bet you'd have everyone on their feet in any club with this one!

I like the rockin' Christine! I think I hear some Talking Heads influence on this one. I believe you are onto something here.
