The View
Woman of the Year
[Verse 1]
You don't need to worry about me
I know this isn't a chapter from your dreams
This is my way of saying sorry
But will you still love me when I'm clean?

[Pre-Chorus]
All of my friends, they will not change
Still holding on to better days
No fake tears when you pretend to cry

[Chorus]
It's only when I wake up
It's only when I stay in bed
The reasons are endless
Why you should run away instead
It's only when I close my eyes
And listen to the words you say
The reasons are endless
You say the words I wanna hear
Yeah, you're thе woman of the year

[Verse 2]
And will I have to worry about you?
I know you'rе attracting more than me
You know that it's not me talking
Couple of drinks and the paranoia's
[Pre-Chorus]
Here with my friends, I won't let go
I'm done with the drugs 'cause it wrecks my bones
Seemingly sound, but the bastard's still on show

[Chorus]
It's only when I wake up
It's only when I stay in bed
The reasons are endless
Why you should run away instead
It's only when I close my eyes
And listen to the words you say
The reasons are endless
You say the words I wanna hear
Yeah, you're the woman of the year

[Bridge]
Lady of the weekend, female of the minute
You gave me a shot and I didn't regret it
Goddess of the weekend, madame of the hour
I don't need anybody, she's my higher power

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
It's only when I wake up
It's only when I stay in bed
The reasons are endless
Why you should run away instead
It's only when I close my eyes
And listen to the words you say
The reasons are endless
You say the words I wanna hear
You make my problems disappear
You say the words I wanna hear
You're the woman of the year
