Intro

    

Verse 1

I can't find a reason, to let go
Even though you found a new love
And she's what your dreams are made of
I can find a reason, to hang on
What went wrong can be forgiven
Without you it ain't worth living, alone

Chorus

Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night
And sometimes I scream out your name
What right does she have to take you away?
When for so long you were mine

Verse 2

I took out all the pictures of our wedding day
It was a time of love and laughter
Happy ever after
But even those old pictures have begun to fade
Please tell me she's not real,
And that you're really coming home to stay 

Chorus

Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night
And sometimes I scream out your name
What right does she have to take your heart away?
When for so long you were mine

Bridge

I can give you two good reasons
To show you love's not blind
He's two and she's four, and you know they adore you
So how can I tell them, you've changed your mind?

Chorus

Sometimes I wake up cryin' at night
And sometimes I scream out your name
What right does she have to take your heart away?
When for so long you were mine
Bm D* E* A D A D* E* A* (timing's tricky for the outro)
I remember when you were mine
