Released as a uk b-side in 1978

I've been blown away like a printed page
That reads "you're lovesick"
Headline news had me so abused
But i was lovesick

You never tried although i sacrificed
My weaknesses for you
I could have understood, i could have read your looks
I should have known better too


I've been holding out but it's time to shout
You know i'm lovesick
A helping hand for a dying man
Who says he's lovesick


I can't explain why i'll never change
This sickness deep inside
I've been doctored down, i've had the nurse around
I've heard too many lies
