Waking Up Without You

I don't want to wake up without you,

Like I've done so many nights before,

I'm sure you can't hear your phone over the music,

I bet the last thing your thinking about is coming home,

I know you're not worried that I'm here alone,

Or about the sounds that wake me up,

I keep staring at the ceiling,

Waiting for your call,

Wondering who'll drive you home,

I guess I should of known what I was getting into,

I met you at a party after all,

You were the life of the party,

The light in the room,

Everyone just watched at you stumbled around,

I thought you'd change your ways,

I thought you'd love me more,

I was so idiotic for believing it to be true,

I'm curled up with a glass of wine,

It's the only thing to calm my nerves,

And tonight I'm praying hard,

That you'll come home tonight.
