One Eye Open Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You were somebody to me, somebody I loved easily
Somebody I believed, who wanted the best for me
You were somebody I could call, somebody I would lose myself for
And you wanted even more, you were somebody who took it all
[Pre-Chorus]
You stole my innocence, ran with it
Was a mess, now I'm better for it
[Chorus]
(Ooh) You were the death of me but I learned to love it
(Ooh) 'Cause now I don't give away trust like it's nothing
(Ooh) Don't fall so hard and not protect my emotions
(Ooh) Won't let my heart get broken
I'll sleep with one eye open
Since you
[Verse 2]
You were somebody who made me think twice 'bout how much I give away
But I won't make the same mistake (But I won't make the same mistake)
I love myself in a better way
[Pre-Chorus]
You stole my innocence, ran with it
Was a mess, now I'm better for it
[Chorus]
(Ooh) You were the death of me but I learned to love it
(Ooh) 'Cause now I don't give away trust like it's nothing
(Ooh) Don't fall so hard and not protect my emotions
(Ooh) Won't let my heart get broken
I'll sleep with one eye open (Since you)
[Post-Chorus]
Since you (Since you, since you, since you, since you, since you)
Since you (Since you, since you, since you, since you, since you)
[Bridge]
You said it, I felt it, the love of your life, so where are you now?
I'm breaking, protecting myself from the pain of getting let down
You were somebody to me (Mm)
You were somebody to me
But now I'm better for it (Oh)
[Chorus]
You were the death of me but I learned to love it
(Ooh) 'Cause now I don't give away trust like it's nothing
(Ooh) Don't fall so hard and not protect my emotions
(Ooh) Won't let my heart get broken
I'll sleep with one eye open
[Post-Chorus]
Since you (Since you, since you, since you, since you, since you)
Since you (Since you, since you, since you, since you, since you)
Since you (Since you, since you, since you, since you, since you)
Since you (Since you, since you, since you, since you, since you)
