Addicted
Boy & Bear Lyrics
I’m Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Breaking your heart right down the middle
Solved you like you were a riddle
Playing your strings like a fiddle
You said you like that just a little
I’m the bad boy that breaks your heart
You said that that’s kinda hot
When we argue we just press restart
Then we carry on where we left off
I’m the bad boy that breaks your heart
You said that that’s kinda hot
When we argue we just press restart
Then we carry on where we left off
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
I'm not responsible for your heart-attack
Keep that shit, I don’t want it back
Smoking my blunt straight to the face
I’m so high I’m outer-space
I need drugs to feel ok
Your love will do for today
Draining your love with a single touch
Bet you cannot get enough
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Breaking your heart right down the middle
Solved you like you were a riddle
You said you like that just a little
I’m the bad boy that breaks your heart
You said that that’s kinda hot
When we argue we just press restart
Then we carry on where we left off
I’m the bad boy that breaks your heart
You said that that’s kinda hot
When we argue we just press restart
Then we carry on where we left off
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
I'm not responsible for your heart-attack
Keep that shit, I don’t want it back
Smoking my blunt straight to the face
I’m so high I’m outer-space
I need drugs to feel ok
Your love will do for today
Draining your love with a single touch
Bet you cannot get enough
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
Addicted to your love that’s what it is
Feel so good when consuming it
They say love is dangerous
Makes my heart about to quit
