Addicted to You
Avicii Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Swore I'd never fall in love again, but I fell hard
Guess I should have seen it coming, caught me by surprise
Wasn't looking where I was going, I fell into your arms
You came into my crazy world like a cool and cleansing rain
Before I, I knew what hit me, baby, you were flowing through my veins
Like a powerful drug I can't get enough of
Lost in your eyes, drowning in blue
Out of control, what can I do?
I'm addicted to you
Midnight blows in through the window, dances 'round the room
Got me hypnotized, I'm getting high on the perfume
I couldn't live without you now, oh, I know I'd go insane
I wouldn't last one night alone, baby
I couldn't stand the pain
I'm addicted to you, hooked on your love
Like a powerful drug I can't get enough of
Lost in your eyes, drowning in blue
Out of control, what can I do?
I'm addicted to you

Lost in your eyes, drowning in blue
When I gaze into your eyes, I lose myself and become consumed by the depths of your blue eyes
Out of control, what can I do?
I am powerless to control my feelings for you; I do not know what to do
Midnight blows in through the window, dances 'round the room
The atmosphere is serene as midnight creeps in ever so gently and sways through the room
Got me hypnotized, I'm getting high on the perfume
Your intoxicating scent has entranced me; I am on a high from being close to you
I couldn't live without you now, oh, I know I'd go insane
I cannot imagine my life without you; without you, I would lose my mind
I wouldn't last one night alone, baby
I would not be able to spend even one night alone without feeling your absence
I couldn't stand the pain
The pain of being without you is too much for me to bear

I don't know just how it happened
I let down my guard
Swore I'd never fall in love again
But I fell hard
Guess I should have seen it coming
Caught me by surprise
Wasn't looking where I was going
I fell into your eyes
You came into my crazy world
Like a cool and cleansing wave
Before I, I knew what hit me, baby
You were flowing through my veins
I'm addicted to you
Hooked on your love
Like a powerful drug
I can't get enough of
Lost in your eyes
Drowning in blue
Out of control
What can I do
I'm addicted to you
Midnight blows in through the window
Dances 'round the room
Got me hypnotized
I'm getting high on love with you
I couldn't live without you now
Oh, I know I'd go insane
I wouldn't last one night alone, baby
I couldn't stand the pain
I'm addicted to you
Hooked on your love
Like a powerful drug
I can't get enough of
Lost in your eyes
Drowning in blue
Out of control
What can I do?
I'm addicted to you

I don't know just what I'm made of
Face looks like Bonnie's, possessed by the Purple Guy
I will kill whomever I please
Three decades after the restaurant, I'm in for the ride
Five nights 'til the doors open
The guard had better hide
You chose to work at this nightmare, baby
Like a mouse into a trap
You can play your tapes and temporarily distract me, baby
But no matter what, I will be back
I'm addicted to guards, rip 'em up into parts
While I feast on their hearts, scare 'em 'til they take shots
This attraction is great, so many guards I can rape 'til I can't see straight
When can I start? I'm addicted to guards
The guard looks down at his tablet, I sneak in the room
He has no idea his painful death is coming soon
He couldn't last five nights alone with me, baby
Flashing red lights make me mad
You know they make me wanna jumpscare ya, baby
Make me feel so bad
I'm addicted to guards, rip 'em up into parts
While I feast on their hearts, scare 'em 'til they take shots
This attraction is great, so many guards I can rape 'til I can't see straight
When can I start? I'm addicted to guards
