Can't Break The Habit

I can kick any habit that is if I want to*
Or I can lay off whatever I’m on
But of all the things that I’ve been a slave to
Hey you’re the one thing I can’t leave alone

I can’t break the habit love is too strong
I can’t take the cure now I’ve been hooked to long
I crave your loving wouldn’t quit if I could
Can’t break the habit cause I have it to good

I can stay off the bottle go straight if I want to
Or I can stay high till the curtain comes down
I used to get around love and move on if I had to
But you’re the one thing I can’t get around
