I guess I thought you'd be here forever Another illusion I chose to create You don't know what ya got until it's gone And I found out just a little too late
I was acting as if you were lucky to have me Doin' you a favor, I hardly knew you were there But, then you were gone and it was all wrong Had no idea how much I cared
Chorus: Now being without you Takes a lot of getting used to Should learn to live with it But, I don't want to Living without you Is all a big mistake Instead of getting easier It's the hardest thing to take I'm addicted to ya, babe You're a hard habit to break
You found someone else, you had every reason You know I can't blame you for runnin' to him Two people together, but living alone I was spreading my love too thin
After all of these years, I'm still tryin' to shake it Doin' much better, they say that it just takes time But, deep in the night, it's an endless flight I can't get ya out of my mind
Chorus
I just can't go on I just can't go on
Being without you Takes a lot of getting used to Should learn to live with it I don't want to Being without you Is all a big mistake Instead of getting any easier It's the hardest thing to take I'm addicted to you You're a hard habit to break Such a hard habit to break I'm addicted to you You're a hard habit to break Such a hard habit to break I'm addicted to you, baby
