My friends call me up 'cause they know I'm down
Take me out to paint the town and help me get over it.
A 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 comin' 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 get myself half of a chance
To get alive 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

Oh I wake up lovin' you oh

Oh I wake up lovin' you oh
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 seams I'm breaking every promise 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 oh
I wake up lovin' you oh
I wake up lovin' you oh
I wake up lovin' you

I wake up lovin' you
I wake up lovin' you
