Hard Habit To Break

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