My Obsession Lyrics - Singles - Icehouse

I used to be the one who made you feel so safe and strong 

I could always make it right when everything was going wrong 

I don't know why it seems no different now I'm on my own 

And I don't know what it is that scares me when I'm all alone 

I can't believe that everyone I know would lie to me 

When they all tell me that I'm not the man I used to be 

Don't want to hear about the things that I already know 

You've got to say it isn't so, oh no, it's the 

The ghost of you that gets me every time 

(My obsession) 

Just won't let go until it brings me down 

(My obsession) 

I try to hide it but there's only one and my obsession is you 

(My obsession) 

The little things you used to do and say 

(My obsession) 

Break every moment of my night and day 

(My obsession) 

Believe me darling, oh, you know it's true 

(My obsession) 

And my obsession is you 

Yeah, my friends all turn away 

They tell me not to waste my time 

They say they just don't understand 

How anyone could be so blind 

And there's one thing you can't change 

Forget about her now you know she's gone 

Hey boy, that girl is just no good 

She's only gonna do you harm 

So I watch the hours turn 

Until I lose the last long ray of light 

And I know I can't pretend 

Those shadows won't come out tonight 

I can't believe that everyone I know would lie to me 

When they all tell me that I'm not the man I used to be 

Don't want to hear about the things that I already know 

You've got to say it isn't so, oh no, it's the 

The ghost of you that gets me every time 

(My obsession) 

Just won't let go until it brings me down 

(My obsession) 

I try to hide it but there's only one 

(My obsession) 

And my obsession is you 

The little things you used to do and say 

(My obsession) 

Break every moment of my night and day 

(My obsession) 

Believe me darling oh you know it's true 

(My obsession) 

And my obsession is you 

The ghost of you that gets me every time 

(My obsession) 

Just won't let go until it brings me down 

(My obsession) 

I try to hide it but there's only one 

(My obsession) 

And my obsession is you 

(My obsession is you) 

The little things you used to do and say 

(My obsession is you) 

Break every moment of my night and day 

(My obsession is you) 

Believe me darling, oh, you know it's true 

(My obsession is you) 

And my obsession is you yeah, you yeah 

The ghost of you that gets me every time 

(My obsession) 

Just won't let go until it brings me down 

(My obsession) 

I try to hide it but there's only one 

(My obsession) 

And my obsession is you
