Getting There Lyrics - 1999

[ Buy Getting There ]

Written by kevin bacon

Yeah i used to smoke like a house on fire
I couldn't put them down
And i would drink all night till the morning light
They'd find me on the ground
You name it i abused it
Without shame i used it
There is just one thing that i can't let go
When it comes to you i just can't say no

Chorus
Strung out on you baby
And i can't clean up my act
You're like a heavenly addiction
You're like an angel on my back
It's a physical dependence girl
There's nothing i can do
I just can't get enough of your sweet sweet love
And i'm still strung out on you

The first time that i saw you girl
My hands began to shake
I was hypnotized paralyzed watching every move you make
Every second every minute
I was falling deeper in it
How was i to know that that one sweet kiss
Would lead to harder stuff like this

Chorus
