Woke Up In Love

[Verse 1]
I met her on a Thursday night
At the bar up by the TV
We sat and talked and watched the Cowboys
Though they weren't either of our teams
I bravely asked you for your number
When I felt my heart give a tug
I went to bed the same lonesome old fool
But I woke up in love

[Chorus]
I used to use the word “love” casually
I used to use it on things it could never be
Fleeting feelings that were gone by the end of the week
Till I woke up in love
A feeling in my mind but never my heart
A poetic device only used in the arts
But dreaming that night, I saw your face in the stars
And I woke up in love

[Verse 2]
I was taken aback
(Oh, my Lord)
Tell me, what could've that been?
A feeling like love that I didn't think I believed in
'Cause I've seen movies and I’ve heard songs
I've read poetry I quoted along
But not till I felt it did I know behind them words
Was a feeling quite as strong

[Chorus]
I used to use the word “love” casually
I used to use it on things it could never be
Fleeting feelings that were gone by the end of the week
Till I woke up in love
A feeling in my mind but never my heart
A poetic device only used in the arts
But dreaming that night, I saw your face in the stars
And I woke up in love

[Outro]
But dreaming that night, I saw your face in the stars
And I woke up in love
