Hooked On You Lyrics Baby if you only knew Everything I need I get from you I'll never let you out of sight I need you through the day and night, baby Always there to see me through Darlin' don't you know I'm hooked on you Habits I've had before But never came back so much for more I need your lovin' every day I couldn't live without it, no way And everybody knows it's true Everybody knows I'm hooked on you Well I've never been dependin' and never thought I would Oh but now I find that I don't mind, the change is for the good So don't be feelin' sorry, for the freedom that I lost 'Cause I found out what I'm missin', and I'm glad to pay the cost Now that I've tasted you I know nobody else will ever do I'm glad that I can say you're mine I love ya 'cause your sugar's so fine And no one else'll ever do There's nothin' like bein' hooked on you Always there to see me through Baby that's why I'm hooked on you
