Every morning you wake up alone
|
And you shake up your soul but nothing stirs
|
So you take the love of whoever you please
|
But you can't find no reason for giving yours
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
'Cause once upon a time
|
You held a love so strong and fine
|
That all the others simply don't compare
|
She's always on your mind
|
But once upon a time
|
You had her there
|
|
Drive into town 'most every night
|
On the chance that there might be someone waiting for you
|
You tell yourself you'll give it your best
|
Maybe settle for less but you never do
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Every morning you wake up alone
|
And you shake up your soul but nothing stirs
|
So you take the love of whoever you please
|
But you can't find no reason for giving yours
|
|
[Chorus]
|
