Feels so good to wake up in the morning by myself
Cup of coffee in the kitchen, fire up a little danger to my health
You see I loved you when I loved you, but it always felt like I was someone else
I loved you when I loved you but I always felt like I was someone else
You drift into my dreams as though you had the right And you show me how you broke me doing all the little things I really like But I let it all go by just so long as you and I don't have to fight I let it all go by just so long as you and I don't have to fight And it feels so good not to wonder who you're with Who you love, who you touch, and who you kiss Oh baby, would you ever guess that there's a side of loneliness as sweet as this? Oh baby, would you ever guess that there's a side of loneliness as sweet as this? I don't know about tomorrow, but I know what's coming next I was broken when I met you, I was broken on the day that I left But there's a gypsy in my trailer who says I'll love you with my dying breath There's a gypsy in my trailer who says I'll love you with my dying breath I'm running late, down that river to the sea I'm so glad, baby, I got to see you smiling back at me It's like they took me out of rehab, they fixed me up and said: "The last one is free" It's like they took me out of rehab, they fixed me up and said: "The last one is free" Feels so good not to love you like I did I don't know why, baby, but it just is It's like they tore away my blindfold and they said: "We're gonna let this prisoner live" It's like they tore away my blindfold and they said: "We're gonna let this prisoner live"
