  • I woke up with a headache today
    'Cause I've got a mortgage due and an empty bed to make
    And, girl, it's funny to me how much I hate your memory
    But unlike you, it'll always be with me

    No matter how bad I wanted to leave
    Started smoking cigarettes again
    But I only light a few 'cause you're not here to tell me I can't
    And, girl, I wish I could say
    Whiskey helps to drown the pain
    But it only helps to drive me insane
    Every time I hear your name

    Baby, I bet you're happy now
    Probably found you someone new who's got his life all figured out
    As for me, I stay locked up in this old bedroom
    Writing songs for you and thinking about us
    Girl, I thought it was love

    Went to bed with a headache tonight
    'Cause I've got a mortgage due and no one laying by my side
    I never knew a king-size bed would get so cold
    When the king is down, and he is all alone
    Lord knows I need a queen to hold

    Baby, I bet you're happy now
    Probably found you someone new who's got his life all figured out
    As for me, I stay locked up in this old bedroom
    Writing songs for you and thinking about us
    Girl, I thought it was love

    Girl, I knew it was love
    I guess I didn't know what love was Writer/s: Ty Wenston Myers
