Powers of Addiction Songtext

von Uriah Heep

Power’s an addiction
Once you've held it in your hands
I have to win because
Winning’s all that counts
I’ll take the rough with the smooth
And accept the end results
But just to be behind the wheel
And feel the rush from my blood

And I want it, oh...so bad
The thrust, the thrill, the speed
When my foot’s on the gas

Holding on tight
Waiting for the green light
We’re heading for the sunrise, hold tight
Holding on tight
We can’t stop and turn around
We’ve gotta make it now
Before the sun goes down

It’s not good enough
To finish second best
It’s the risk of life or death
When you strive to beat the rest
Feel the heat and the dust
The sweat is pouring down my head
I have a thirst for speed
And a fire in my breath

And I need it, oh...so bad
And I love it, the speed
The speed, it drives
