Addicted

I was looking around Then suddenly The feelings I once had for you Were again found I realized I was standing On shaky ground All was spinning Control was coming unwound Straining to make a sound No words would form Struggling to make sense of everything Cause I was feeling torn Needing to let go of it all The things that were wrong But I knew either path I took, I would fall I’ve never been very strong Oh but I attempted to hold on To a love that had long been gone I tried to make the out of control emotions stall But it was inevitable all along And I knew then it was time to move on It was you and not him that lit a fire Deep and forever burning in my soul You are my hearts desire You I can’t let go I need to finish what I started Knowing it could leave me broken hearted I have to get all this out of my head The words need out and need to be said I can right now only fantasize Of one day when I can look into your eyes And once again be hypnotized Even though holding on this way Hurts so damn much And I long to have you here Needing your touch The thought of again letting you go Well it makes me hurt even more so Now I know what being in love really is How it really feels And the pain of losing the one you’re in love with It never seems to heal No matter how many years come to pass You have been a part of me for far to long It’s like some kind of drug Some may call me crazy Let them I know without a doubt I’m in love Every night I pray to the heavens above That somehow we will start anew Guess I've always known it's true I’m addicted to you… …I’ll still be here waiting in line Please don’t shut me down this time Give me some kind of sign
