In The Headlights Caught
Love can make you moony like the pining dupe.
Love can make you spoony in the one fell swoop.
Love can make you sappy like the simon-pure.
Love can make you happy in the crazed allure.
Love can make you dizzy like the woozy daze.
Love can make you fizzy in the murky haze.
Love can make you needy like the skinny fish.
Love can make you seedy in the broken wish.
Love can make you misty like the tearful gape.
Love can make you twisty in the corkscrew shape.
Love can make you giddy like a scatty thought.
Love can make you skiddy in the headlights caught.
