"Sober (You Make Me Wanna Be)" lyrics

"Sober (You Make Me Wanna Be)"

Oh, oh

Been spending most of my life
In a haze
I go to bed drunk every night
To kill the pain, yeah

And all I ever remember is how I feel regret each morning after
And it drives me to drink again, I can't face the person in the mirror
What a vicious cycle I get myself into
But you, oh you

You make me wanna be sober (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
With you I wanna feel everything (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just turn this wine into water (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause I don't wanna miss anything, no (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I was blacking out to block out everyone before you
But you make me wanna be sober
Mmm (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sober (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

So I can live in your presence
Put down the glass
Touch you with all of my senses
And I'm sensing it's gonna last, yeah

Everything that you do makes me wanna listen better, see you clearer
And the way that you love me makes me love the person in the mirror
What a sweet salvation I just fell into
With you, oh you

You make me wanna be sober (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
With you I wanna feel everything (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just turn this wine into water (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause I don't wanna miss anything, no (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I was blacking out to block out everyone before you
But you make me wanna be sober (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Oh, what a sweet salvation I just fell into
With you, oh you

You make me wanna be sober (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
With you I wanna feel everything (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just turn this wine into water (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause I don't wanna miss anything (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Oh, I just wasted every night that I've been wasted with you
Yeah, you make me wanna be... sober
