Lyrics
Woken Up to Myself
1
I was dreaming the same dream / I was back in your room
under blue sheets and an indigo moon
but I suddenly woke up here / and found nobody there
that life that seemed real it had vanished into thin air
br
all that love that we shared disappeared like smoke
ch
and now that I've woken up to myself
now that I see there's nobody else
can those words be unspoken / those words by the door?
I said "baby I just can't love you anymore"
2
and I'm tired of this city now / I'm tired of this town
and every new bed where I lay my head down
and I've been round the hard way and it's come down to this
you're the last thing I want / you're the one thing that I miss
br
oh baby I fell into the depths of a deep blue dream
ch
but now that I've woken up to myself
now that I see there ain't nobody else
can hearts that we've broken fit back like before?
cos baby I just can't love you anymore
can't love you anymore
can't love you anymore
can't love you anymore
can't love you anymore
baby I just can't love you anymore
