Lyrics meaning

The lyrics describe someone absorbed in a joyful, consuming love. At first, the speaker says they think about the beloved constantly and do not want the feeling to stop. As the song continues, repeated declarations and lively exclamations make the emotion seem even more intense and playful. Rather than treating love as a problem to solve, the speaker celebrates it and refuses to move on.

โ€œLove hangoverโ€ is a playful metaphor: a hangover usually follows drinking and can feel unpleasant, but this one is called โ€œsweet.โ€ It suggests that love leaves the speaker overwhelmed or changed, while still making them happy. A โ€œcureโ€ or โ€œremedyโ€ usually means treatment for an illness; here, those words imply that love might be something to recover from, but the speaker rejects that idea. The repeated โ€œdonโ€™t call my doctorโ€ reinforces the joke that this strong feeling is not an illness needing treatment.

The lyrics present love as pleasurable, but also intense enough to occupy the speakerโ€™s thoughts all the time. The repeated phrases may convey delight more than a detailed story, so we cannot tell exactly what has happened in the relationship. The speakerโ€™s refusal to โ€œget overโ€ the feeling sounds confident and celebratory, though it could also hint at being caught up in an emotion they do not wish to question.
