- Hard Habit to Break – Chicago, 1984.
I guess I thought you’d be here forever
Another illusion I chose to create
You don’t know what ya got until it’s gone
And I found out just a little too late
I was acting as if you were lucky to have me
Doin’ 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 caredChorus:
Now being without you
Takes a lot of getting used to
Should learn to live with it
But I don’t want to
Living without you
Is all a big mistake
Instead of getting easier
It’s the hardest thing to take
I’m addicted to ya babe
You’re a hard habit to breakAin’t it obvious that this is my favorite?

Whoa, those bring back memories all right. Neat list!
Such great songs… I’m not embarrassed to admit publicly that I love Air Supply, and that Chicago’s greatest hits is on my mp3 player. And Heaven, wow. That was my song with my high school sweetheart. Still brings a nostalgic tear to my eye.
Great TT.
Great list! I love Air Supply and Chicago too. And The Glory of Love is my favorite song ever…it was the theme song of Karate Kid.
Ah, what a great list. Hard Habit to Break is my all time favorite. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Awesome list of songs! I can see myself laying on a hammock under a coconut tree, margarita in one hand, a book in the other, listening to these songs. Happy T13!

I remember a lot of these songs being popular when I was a kid – I am an 80s child.
Happy TT and thanks for visiting my list.
Some great songs on your list and some of my favorites. I love Crowded House’s Don’t Dream it’s Over. Of course the Finn Brothers are big down here in NZ since they’re Kiwis.
Ah yes, you must be close the same age as all those songs bring me right back!
Thanks for visiting my TT.
love ur picks too. “hard habbit to break”… brings memories – all of my dad’s…
Hard Habit To Break also brings so many memories and so many what if’s…;-)
Beautiful choice of songs. I’m a big fan of Air Supply.
Oh I love all of those songs! Air Supply was one of my absolute favorites growing up and all of those bring back a ton of memories from high school.
We have a common chord their grace! I love songs from the 70s and 80s. I’m a big fan of the Beegies too- I noticed you didn’t list any of their songs- do you also like them? I remembered that the song “It might be You” was used as a soundtrack to one of my favorite movies- Tootsi starring Dustin Hoffman and Jessica Lange in early 80s.
