Drunk On Love - Lyrics - Basia
Basia Trzetrzelewska is a Polish singer-songwriter and record producer. She established a successful international recording career featuring characteristically Latin-flavoured jazz-pop crossover songs during the late 1980s and early 1990s and the late 2000s and 2010s, particularly in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Japan. She is noted for possessing a wide vocal range, approximately three octaves that span from contralto to soprano tessituras, as well as her singular jazz-influenced stylings and multi-layered harmonies.

I was dreaming when i jumped the lights
Busy scaling dizzy heights
Hummed a somewhat strangely familiar tune
My eyes as wide as open books
And from my ears upon two hooks
A big smile was hanging there like a crescent moon
It sometimes comes as quite a shock
When the gods of love decide to knock
You're in a state of disarray
Just when you least expect it
You'll never know a better day
Day dreaming fever taking over
No misdemeanor stone cold sober
The officer who stopped me said
"lucky you didn't wind up dead!"
And he guessed that I was over and above
I hoped he'd only caution me
And i made a plea for clemency
On the grounds that i was only drunk on love
It sometimes comes as quite a shock
When the gods of love decide to knock
You're in a state of disarray
Just when you least expect it
You'll never know a better day
Day dreaming fever taking over
No misdemeanor stone cold sober
