Dreaming With A Broken Heart Lyrics
John Mayer
Lyrics
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down onto your knees
And for a moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone...
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with her crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone...
Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh
Now, do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my, roses in my, hand?
Baby, would you get them if i did?
No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone...
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part...
