[Lyric] Hard Habit To Break Symphonic Version (Chicago)

[Verse 1: Peter Cetera]
I guess I thought you'd be here
Forever
Another illusion
I chose to create
You don't know what you got
Until it's gone
And I found out
A little too late

[Verse 2: Bill Champlin, with bandmates]
I was acting as if
You were lucky to have me
Doing you a favor
I hardly knew you were there
But then you were gone
And it was all wrong
Had no idea how much I cared

[Chorus: Peter Cetera, with bandmates, Bill Champlin]
Now being without you
Takes a lot of getting used to
Should learn to live with it
But I don't want to
Being without you
It's all a big mistake
Instead of getting easier
It's the hardest thing to take
I'm addicted to you, babe
You're a hard habit to break
[Verse 3: Peter Cetera, with bandmates]
You found someone else
You had every reason
Know I can't blame you
For running to him
Two people together
But living alone
I was spreading my love too thin

[Verse 4: Bill Champlin, with bandmates (Peter Cetera)]
After all of these years
I'm still trying to shake it
Doing much better (They say that it just takes time)
But deep in the night
It's an endless fight
I can't get you out of my mind

[Chorus: Peter Cetera, with bandmates, Bill Champlin]
Now being without you
Takes a lot of getting used to
Should learn to live with it
But I don't want to
Being without you
It's all a big mistake
Instead of getting easier
It's the hardest thing to take
I'm addicted to you, babe
You're a hard habit to break
[Bridge: Bill Champlin (Peter Cetera)]
I can't go on (Can't go on)
Just can't go on (Just can't go on)
I can't go on (Can't go on)
Just can't go on (Just can't go on)

[Chorus: Peter Cetera, with bandmates, Bill Champlin]
Now being without you
Takes a lot of getting used to
Should learn to live with it
But I don't want to
Being without you
It's all a big mistake
Instead of getting easier
It's the hardest thing to take
I'm addicted to you, babe
You're a hard habit to break

[Outro: All]
You're a hard (You're a) habit to (Hard) break (Habit to break)
(Just can't go on)
Such a hard (Such a) habit to (Hard) break (Habit to break)
(Just can't go on)
I'm addicted to you
You're a hard (You're a) habit to (Hard) break (Habit to break)
(Just can't go on)
Such a hard (Such a) habit to (Hard) break (Habit to break)
(Just can't go on)
I'm addicted to you, baby!
