Love is Only a Feeling by The Darkness

The first flush of youth was upon you when our eyes first met
And I knew that to you and into your life I had to get
I felt light-headed at the touch of this stranger's hand
An assault my defences systematically failed to withstand

'Cause you came at a time
When the pursuit of one true love in which to fall
Was the be all and end all

Love is only a feeling
(Drifting Away)
When I'm in your arms I start beleiving
(It's here to stay)
But love is only a feeling
Anyway

The state of elation that this unison of hearts achieved
I had seen, I had touched, I had tasted and I truly believed

That the light of my life
Would tear a hole right through each cloud that scudded by
Just to beam on you and I

Love is only a feeling
(Drifting Away)
When I'm in your arms I start believing
(It's here to stay)
But love is only a feeling
Anyway, anyway

Love is only a feeling
(Drifting Away)
And we've got to stop ourselves believing
(It's here to stay)
'Cause love is only a feeling
Anyway

Yeah, this song reminds me of Man-pretty (obviously) because I don't want to love him, I cannot physically love him without hurting myself. The thing is, every day I find myself caring for him more than I want to allow myself to. I'm starting not to care whether or not I get hurt by it.
