I don't think it's really simple as drug-like addiction. Drug addiction is a darker theme, which brings harm to the addict. But the song doesn't feel that way for me.
First, note that the girl is surprised at her current situation. And, from her point of view, her partner is just as clueless as her. It makes the relationship somewhat innocent because neither of them knew what they were getting into. Both of them didn't have any schemes, they just did what came naturally and their relationship grew from there.
The lyrics also lack the malice that comes from the demands of addiction. True, she can't get enough of her partner, but she describes the relationship as a "beautiful vision" and how it relates to her dreams and ambitions. The phrase "life-long" shows that the feeling of ecstasy goes beyond a few fleeting moments. She's not just happy for a short while like with a drug, this is a commitment.
Finally, the idea of addiction itself is contradicted with the line "There can be no other while we still have each other". The use of "while" shows that she isn't completely dependent. She'll stay with her partner while it lasts, but only as long as it's possible for them to be together.
