Addicted

She says she hates to sleep alone

But she'll do it tonight

She wants to grab her telephone

But she knows it ain't right

So if he won't call she'll survive

And if he don't care she'll get by

Climb into bed, bury her head and cry

From the beginning

He was all anyone could have been

They were delirious with love

They were certain to win

Now he's breaking plans more and more

And he's leaving notes on her door

Took a trip out of town

Couldn't turn this one down

He said "I guess I should have told you before"

She says she feels like she's addicted

To a real bad thing

Always sitting, waiting

Wondering if the phone will ring

She knows she bounces like a yo-yo

When he pulls her string

Hurts to feel like such a fool

She wants to tell him not to call

Or come around, again

He doesn't need her now, at all

The way that she needs him

She's on the edge about to fall

From leaning out and in

And she don't know which way to move, oh no

She wants to be fair

She couldn't say he was ever unkind

But if she could bear to walk away

She thinks he wouldn't mind

'Cause he just keeps himself so apart

And there's no one else in her heart

So she's taking a dive from an emotional high

And coming down hard

She says she feels like she's addicted

To a real bad thing

Always sitting, waiting

Wondering if the phone will ring

She knows she bounces like a yo-yo

When he pulls her string

It hurts to feel like such a fool

She wants to tell him not to call

Or come around again

He doesn't need her now at all

The way that she needs him

She's on the edge about to fall

From leaning out and in

And she don't know which way to move

She says she feels like she's addicted

To a real bad thing

Always sitting, waiting

Wondering if the phone will ring

She knows she bounces like a yo-yo

When he pulls her string

It hurts to feel like such a fool, whoa-whoa

And she don't know which way to move, whoa-whoa

It hurts to feel like such a fool
