Text: Arthur Russell. Love Is Overtaking Me. Habit Of You.
When I opened the door and saw you smiling once again, I felt so lucky and so warm inside; opened the door and saw you smiling even though the snow was blowing, it's so warm inside. Hey, I think I'm falling in love , I guess you know, Hey, I think I'm losing my cool, I guess it shows; but a habit of you would be hard to give up, a habit of you would be hard to give up, yes, a habit of you, a habit of you would be hard to give up. When I opened the box and saw my orange birthday cake, I felt like crying, that's all I could do. I opened the box and saw my orange birthday, that's all that's left of mama's birthday boy. Hey, I think I'm falling in love, I guess you know. A habit of you would be hard to give, yes, a habit of you, would be hard to give up, yes, a habit of you, a habit of you, would be hard to give up. When I opened the door and saw you smiling back at me, I felt like crying, that's all I could do. I opened the door and saw you smiling back at me, that's all that's left of mama's birthday boy. Hey, I think I've fallen in love, I guess you know. Hey I think I'm losing my cool, I guess it shows; 'cause a habit of you is hard to give up, 'cause a habit of you is hard to give up, 'cause a habit of you, a habit of you is hard to give up. Habit of you, it's hard to give up x 12
