Addictive Love
Maceo Parker Lyrics

All I wanna do is just explain
The singer wants to share the reason behind their feelings

Why that we feel the way we do
They are trying to explain the reason for the strong emotions they experience

What a joy to share with you
Sharing their feelings with the listener brings the singer happiness

For me to live is Christ, to die is gain
The singer's faith is strong, and they find comfort in their beliefs

If anymore I need to say
The singer may have more to say, but it could take all day to explain

The list goes on and on all day
There are many reasons why the singer feels the way they do

I'll cherish that moment for life
The singer treasures the moment they are sharing with the listener

And I know it might sound crazy
The singer is aware that their feelings may seem intense or irrational

It's alright, take a seat, hold tight
The singer reassures the listener that it's okay, and encourages them to listen closely

Time to admit
The singer thinks it's time to confess something

I'm so addicted, yeah
The singer is admitting that they are addicted to something

You see, He's taken my heart
The singer attributes their addiction to a specific person or entity

And showed me the right way
This person or entity has guided the singer towards the correct path

No doubt about it
The singer is confident and believes strongly in their addiction

Doubt it, no doubt
The singer wants to emphasize that there is no doubt in their feelings

See, I'm lost without it, yeah
The singer feels incomplete or lost without their addiction

You see this love takes me higher
The singer's addiction lifts them up emotionally

I didn't know why then
Initially, the singer was unsure of the reason behind their addiction

Now that we've evened up the score
The singer wants to make sure that they have expressed their feelings fully

Hey, what do you mean there's so much more
The singer wants to make sure they've covered everything

I need to tell why we adore
The singer wants to explain why their feelings are so intense

The reason why I smile when I, when I wake up
The singer's addiction is the reason for their happiness in the morning

And also the reason why I dream
The singer's addiction is also the reason for their dreams

My love, my joy, my everything
The singer's addiction is all-consuming and affects every aspect of their life

So much love
There is a significant amount of love in the singer's life

He's given to me everything I longed for
The person or entity has fulfilled all of the singer's desires

Everything I need
The singer's addiction is something they can't do without

That means I'm never alone, so glad
The singer takes comfort in the fact that their addiction is always with them

And everything I've dreamed and much more
The singer's addiction has exceeded their expectations

For the rest of my life, yeah, yeah
The singer plans to cherish their addiction forever

I've never known anyone to love me quite the way you do
The person or entity who the singer is addicted to loves them in an incomparable way

It's hopeless, I've finally noticed that
The singer realizes they are unable to break free from their addiction

I'm just forever addicted, forever
The singer believes their addiction is permanent and unbreakable

Hold tight
The singer wants the listener to pay close attention

Showed me the way
The person or entity has guided the singer towards their addiction

A little bit higher
The singer's addiction lifts them up emotionally, but not to an extreme level

Hey, yes, I am
The singer reiterates that they are addicted
