My friends call me up 'cause they know I'm down Take me out to paint the town and help me get over it Pretty blonde girl at the end of the bar Buys a drink, gives a wink, and then it goes too far We're out on the dance floor feelin' the gin I finally start coming alive again I take her home for the night And everything is right until the first ray of sunlight And damn if I don't wake up lovin' you Oh I wake up lovin' you Thought if I could catch a plane, touch down, out of town Somewhere nobody knows you Maybe I could give myself half of a chance To get a life and act a like a different man But my best of intentions were all shot to hell And I found myself hiding in a cheap hotel Drownin' in the whiskey, starin' at the T.V., tryin' not to sleep 'Cause I'm just gonna wake up lovin' you Yeah I wake up lovin' you, yeah Yeah I wake up lovin' you, Yeah I wake up lovin' you Remember when I told you I was never going to stop Lovin' you with all my heart and soul no matter what Now it seems I'm breaking every promise that I made 'Cause every night I'm desperate Askin' God if He would just let me forget it But I wake up lovin' you I wake up lovin' you I wake up lovin' you, yeah I wake up lovin' you, yeah I wake up lovin' you, oh I wake up lovin' you I wake up lovin' you I wake up lovin' you
