One More Addiction

(альбом: Left Of The Middle - 1998)

First the good news
It's gonna feel very nice
Then the bad news
You gotta pay a heavy price

Rip tide,
we slide,
we ride
On a deep forbidden sea
Under we go
So slow
And you're hanging onto me

And I say
One more addiction in my world
One more connection to let go
Floating down the river
Out of sight forever
From my world

It's the only thing I know how to do
I reject you
But I can't follow through
and I'd forget you
But you'd end up tapping on my back door

Somehow I lost myself
In a tunnel long and black
Somewhere at the end
I pretend
There's a way of turning back

And I say
One more addiction in my world
One more connection to let go
Floating down the river
Out of sight forever
From my world

It's the only thing I know how to do

Take a breath
Let it out
All the things you frown about
Are meaningless
Of course unless
You're doing this for real I guess
I meant to but
I don't know what
Is in the way
And could I say
It's you I bet
I won't forget
Maybe I'm not ready yet

One more addiction in my world
One more connection to let go
Floating down the river
Out of sight forever
From my world

One more addiction in my world
One more connection to let go
Floating down the river
Out of sight forever
From my world

It's the only thing I know how to do [4x and ad-libs]

'Cause I'd forget you
