I'm Waking Up

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm staying in bed thinking back on us And everything that went wrong Never said goodbye, think I broke your trust Should've known this all along Don't wanna be the one that you're trying to avoid I'm feelin' so confused, why did I act so annoyed? [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause I don't wanna be strangers, baby The next time when we meet And, oh, it dawned on me, yeah, yes it did [Chorus] Not letting you go 'Cause what we had was golden You gotta know I was standing on the border The walls around me kept me safe I couldn't see that I was shutting you out I'm stuck up and proud, but I'm waking up now Want you to know that I need you I'm waking up now You gotta know that I need you, yeah I'm waking up now [Verse 2] I'm a little messed up but it's time for me to be dropping down my defense I realize I wasn't there for real What I did didn't make any sense How can I get you close? I see why you'd be so cold But you need to forget everything that I've told ya [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause I ain't playing it low-key, baby I'll bring you right back home And oh, it dawned on me, yeah, yes it did [Chorus] Not letting you go 'Cause what we had was golden You gotta know I was standing on the border The walls around me kept me safe I couldn't see that I was shutting you out I'm stuck up and proud, but I'm waking up now Want you to know that I need you I'm waking up now You gotta know that I need you, yeah I'm waking up now [Outro] Oh yeah I'm waking up now I'm waking up now [Outro] Want you to know that I need you (You gotta know that I need you, yeah)
