Lyrics   status: confirmed

The lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need

You'd like to think
That you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
Gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Your tongue is tied, you can't breathe
You're runnin' at a different speed
Your heart beats in double time
Another kiss and you'll be mine
A one track mind
You can't be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there is some for you
You don't mind if you do

You'd like to think
That you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
Gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

The lights are on, but you're not home
Your will is not your own
Your heart sweats, your teeth grind
Another kiss and you'll be mine

You'd like to think
That you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
Face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

NOTES:

  • Originally performed by Robert Palmer.
  • Kim went into a karaoke booth at a mall where they play a backing track and you sing lead along with it, and they record it and give it to you when you're done.
  • After recording it, they took it to a place where you could make your own music video, and produced the first Ciccone Youth video. Kim is featured with Black Flag earrings and a guitar, posing in front of a screen showing army footage.
