Choose Your Poison
I'm addicted to your love my love I'm addicted to your touch You're more to me than heaven above And I need you oh so much. I'm addicted to your smile my love I'm addicted to your voice And even if push should come to shove You're still my drug of choice. You've taken my heart and torn it apart You've made me cry so often Yet you can mend this battered heart With words so falsely spoken. To leave you now would be to me Like tearing off my arms And I haven't the will to set myself free Of your all too treacherous charms. I've given up my life to be The part of you unknown But even when you hold me close I feel so all alone. For you can never give me What isn't yours to give And I can never hope to be The reason why you live. I've got to break this habit Someday, someway, somehow I've got to get myself back The time to start is now. I've got to say goodbye to you Though it may break my heart I've got to make my life anew And make a brand new start. And if in the process of finding myself I leave you far behind Then that's your chance to find yourself So you're no longer blind. And in the end it's going to be The way it's meant to be No longer need I live in you I'll be addiction free! |

My dedication is too strong to let go of him, and can relate sooooo much.
