To Ctake you away
And leave you far beFhind
And Clove love love

It'Fs savage and it's cruel
And it shines like destruction
FComes in like the flood
And it seems like religion
It's Fnoble and it's brutal
It distorts and deranges
And it Fwrenches you up
And you're left like a zombCie

It's Fguilt edged
Glamorous and sleek by design
You know it's Fjealous by nature
False and unkind
It's Chard and restrained
And it's totally cool
It Ftouches and it teases
As you stumble in the dFebrisC  
[Chorus]
FAnd I want you
And I want you
FAnd I want you so
It's an obCsession
FAnd I want you

FAnd I want you so
It's an obCsession
FAnd I want you
And I want you
FAnd I want you so
It's an obCsession

[Verse]

Love is a stranger

In an open car

To tempt you in

And drive you far away

Ooh, love is a stranger

In an open car

To tempt you in

And drive you far away

[Chorus]

And I want you

And I want you so

It's an obsession

And I want you

And I want you so

It's an obsession

[Verse]

Love is a danger

Of a different kind

To take you away

And leave you far behind

And love love love

Is a dangerous drug

You have to receive it

And you still can't

Get enough of the stuff

It's savage and it's cruel

And it shines like destruction

Comes in like the flood

And it seems like religion

It's noble and it's brutal

It distorts and deranges

And it wrenches you up

And you're left like a zombie

[Chorus]

And I want you

And I want you so

It's an obsession

[Instrumental]

C C

[Bridge]

It's guilt edged

Glamorous and sleek by design

You know it's jealous by nature

False and unkind

It's hard and restrained

And it's totally cool

It touches and it teases

F C

As you stumble in the debris

[Chorus]

And I want you

And I want you so

It's an obsession

And I want you

And I want you so

It's an obsession

And I want you

And I want you so

It's an obsession

And I want you

And I want you so

It's an obsession
