Lyrics

Rude Awakening

Baby went away she said she couldn't stay
was nothing else to say to each other
She packed up all her things and gave me back her ring
just a toothbrush on the sink as a reminder

It's too bad we couldn't work things out
It's so sad she couldn't stick around
It's too bad we couldn't work it out
Now I'm in for a rude awakening

At first I was relieved, felt like I've been reprieved
I started to believe I'm better off without her
Then as days went by, one thing I couldn't deny
I finally realized that I really love her

Cause if you really love someone you gotta let them know
and if you really love someone you gotta let it show

I woke up one day and wrote this song to say
loves never far away if you really want it
some are meant to stay together for today
tomorrow they might stray you gotta let them go
