[Verse 1]
He’s a cigarette at midnight, a slow burn on my lips
A secret that I’m keeping in my fingertips
I tell myself I’m stronger, I can walk away for good
Then he looks at me, and I’m knocking on wood
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know it’s a problem, I know it’s a sin
But I’m already aching to feel him again
[Chorus]
He’s the high I keep on chasing, the fever in my blood
The beautiful disaster, the coming, coming flood
I’m a woman on the edge of a cliff I can’t resist
Addicted to the falling, addicted to his kiss
[Verse 2]
My friends all say he’s poison, they can see the bruise
But they don’t understand the shade of blue he uses
He paints me in a corner, then he paints me in gold
A story that I’ll never get too old to be told
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know it’s a problem, I know it’s a sin
But I’m already counting the minutes ‘til I see him again
[Chorus]
He’s the high I keep on chasing, the fever in my blood
The beautiful disaster, the coming, coming flood
I’m a woman on the edge of a cliff I can’t resist
Addicted to the falling, addicted to his kiss
[Bridge]
I’m tangled in the smoke, a glow that won’t concede
If love is a fire, I’m surrendering to the need
[Chorus]
He’s the high I keep on chasing, the fever in my blood
The beautiful disaster, the coming, coming flood
I’m a woman on the edge of a cliff I can’t resist
Addicted to the falling, addicted to his kiss
[Outro]
And when dawn breaks, I’ll be back in his light
Whispering to the mirror, I’ll try to hold on tight
