tears in my eyes

There's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you

There's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you, yeah

I'm not turning over every stone

Looking for someone to call my own

I'm not turning over in my sleep

Looking for hearts I'd be able to keep

But I've never been the biggest fan

Of the notion of a one-night stand

So imagine my relief

When it's seven a.m. and I can hear you breathe

I'm living a life that I don't wanna compromise

And I don't really wanna make any ties

Right now, but don't get me wrong

I'll be a lucky man if we carry on

'Cause there's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you

There's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you

And I could spend the day wrapped in your embrace

With a river running down my face

There's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you

I'm no better than my biggest flaw

But I'm painting the best picture I can draw

I'm no better than my desire

But maybe it’s burning within your fire

I'm no better than other guys

And I get the feeling you understand

But for the sake of being transparent

I gotta tell you what I really am

I'm living a life that I don't wanna compromise

And I don't really wanna make any ties

Right now, but don't get me wrong

I'll be a lucky man if we carry on, 'cause

There's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you

There's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you

And I could spend the day wrapped in your embrace

With a river running down my face

There's tears in my eyes

When I wake up next to you
