Addicted To You
King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson
You beauty makes it a little hard for me to breathe.
Although i'm too polite to ask you to stay,
I'm a little too lonely to ask you to leave.
And i've been watching you all this while.
My heart forgets to beat everytime you smile.
I'm addicted to you woman.
Intoxicated by your smile.
Showing all kinds of symptoms,
Your body puts my hands on trial.
I'm addicted to to woman!
When my eyes first came in contact with you,
I got a little weak in the knees.
I started staggering, i couldn't walk straight.
Lost my balance with the slightest breeze.
It was as if i was tied from your strut to my heart,
And when you shook your hips i just feel apart.
I'm addicted to you woman.
Intoxicated by your smile.
Showing all kinds of symptoms,
Your body puts my hands on trial.
I'm addicted to to woman!
