Backstory:

Thanks for listening to this song Bob- Always enjoy your class! This is the first song I have written in this style- kind of tongue in cheek love song sung in the 1940-ish jazz standard-ish style. Wondered if you see this performed in musical theater or how this song could be classified really? It was fun writing it. Just following the flow of inspiration as I get it. Appreciate your thoughts and ideas on how to market or how to pitch this. Thank you!

Lyrics:

                                                  
LOVE STARVED  
                             

V1	AS I BLOW YOU A KISS ,
	ADMIRE YOU FROM AFAR,
	CUPID’S ARROW FIRES 
	AND HITS ME STRAIGHT 
	IN THE HEART.
	DEEP INTO QUICKSAND
	I’M FALLING FOR YOU.
	AS I LIE HERE 
	HELPLESS IN YOUR ARMS......

CH	LOVE STARVED,
	LOVE SICK OVER YOU.
	DOCTOR, CAN YOU GIVE ME
        A PRESCRIPTION OR TWO?
        JUST ONE MORE KISS?
	ONE MORE SQUEEZE?
	LIFE WITHOUT YOUR LOVE’S
	A DREADFUL DISEASE.

V2	MY HEART WOULDN’T SETTLE 
	FOR JUST ONE GLANCE,
	LET ME BE YOUR FORTUNE TELLER;
	SEE YOUR FUTURE AND PAST,
	AND LISTEN TO YOUR VOICE
	ALL NIGHT THROUGH
	SHARING LIFE’S SECRETS WITH YOU.

CH	LOVE STARVED,
	LOVE SICK OVER YOU.
	GOT IT WORSE THAN THE MEASLES,
	THE MUMPS OR THE FLUE. 
	JUST ONE MORE HOUR, 
	ONE MORE MINUTE WITH YOU
	AND I’LL BE CURED 
	UNTIL A QUARTER PAST TWO.

BR	 AS WE HOLD EACH OTHER TIGHT,
	 ROMANCE INTO THE NIGHT,
         MY HEART IS MAKING ROOM FOR TWO.
	 YOU FILL UP MY CUP,
         I’LL DRINK IT UP,
	 MESMERIZED AT THE NEARNESS OF YOU.

CH	LOVE STARVED,
	LOVE SICK OVER YOU.
	CAN’T SIT BY MYSELF 
	SINGING THESE BLUES.
	YOU’RE WORSE THAN 
	CHOCOLATE CHERRIES
	I CAN’T REFUSE,
	I’M LOVE STARVED,
	LOVE SICK OVER YOU.
