Hopelessly Addicted

When you meet that someone, you know in an instant It's the one you've been waiting for Not a bit of hesitation, you can call it intuition You've been waiting a lifetime or more They're saying all the things you've been longing to hear Since the day you discovered love Those tender sweet love words that turn you to mush And give your old ticker a shove No second guessing, it pokes you in the heart Suddenly you can't function anymore All you can think of are those tender sweet moments With this angel you've been waiting for At first you ask yourself, “is this the real thing” Or is it just wishful thinking at play Then this vision says something that turns you to mush Any doubts you might have had goes away An age old question, “how d'you know if it's real” Well there's very subtle signs to look for If you can't remember the last names of your parents Then you're hopelessly addicted for sure
