What's up with my heart when it skips a beat? (Skips a beat)
Can't feel no pavement right under my feet (under my feet)

Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreamin' of you
Oh, what can I do?
I still need you, but
I don't want you now

When I'm down and my hands are tied (hands are tied)
I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line (draw the line)
From this pain, I just can't disguise (can't disguise)
It's gonna hurt, but I'll have to say goodbye (say goodbye)

Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreamin' of you
Oh, what can I do?
I still need you, but
I don't want you now

Oh yeah

Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreamin' of you
Oh, what can I do?
I still need you, but
I don't want you now

    Well this has always been one of my favourite songs but I'd say it is pretty certainly about heroin and not about a girl, although I think it has been deliberately written to be ambigious enough to sound to the casual listener like it might be about love of a person.
