lyrics

I woke up early this morning,
I don’t why I cried,
I wished that time was frozen
Oh I wish I could turn back time.
I wish I could turn back time (x2)
I woke up early this morning,
I wish I could turn back time.

A man constantly in disarray,
Feeling strange weight on his shoulders everyday,
Let me demonstrate the reason why he's feeling hazed,
Gambling's the addiction that killed his fate,
And made is relationship go and fade away,
Paper chasing his way towards a grave,
Hating himself for his past mistakes,
And so he says...

She left him cos his bad addictions,
Was causing rifts and, more of his poor decisions,
To force collisions in their relationship, when,
The ship hit the rocks and they became shipwrecked,
That's when her sister said
"You should distance, yourself
from his past predilections,
Every time you try to lift him up, he won't listen,
You owe yourself the time to become uplifted"

I woke up early this morning,
With a big smile on my face,
I woke up early this morning,
My soul was full of grace.
I woke up early this morning,
And I know why I smiled,
I woke up early this morning,
No need to turn back time

See she woke up everyday with a smile on her face
Then she turns to the side and sees his disgrace
His addiction took over the whole entire place
He felt so bad that he'd walk out the door
And everytime he did she cry a lil more
Deep down inside she was feeling quite sore
But he'd disappear just to get another score
Her only solution was to walk out the door

I woke up early this morning,
And I came to realise,
I woke up early this morning
No need to turn back time.

I owe you, I owe you
You owe me, boy this don’t come for free.
