Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for Me Nothing He can do, 'cause only You can cure Me It says in My condition love's the best physician He's prescribed a potion full of warm emotion Every day A loving spoonful to be taken It's the only way To stop this empty heart of Mine from breaking I won't get better until You're back again He told Me, doctor's orders need Your loving arms to hold Me Darling, now I know there is no doubt about it I'm so fond of Your love, I can't live without it You're away But, please don't treat Me like a stranger Doctor's orders say, One kiss from You and I am out of danger (Instrumental Interlude) Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for Me Nothing He can do, 'cause only You can cure Me It says in My condition God's My best physician He's prescribed a potion full of warm emotion
