lyrics

I woke up and saw the bride about a quarter past ten
She was looking resplendent I was looking for a pen
We were caught in a moment but that was way back when
Because lately your smile seems so much harder to find
And that look on your face never seems to unwind
The mere mention of this and I’d find
The receiving end

I see you standing next to me
But you’ve never seemed so low
Why don’t you get back up
Why don’t you get back up

And I know I’ve got my share and that’s nothing to be proud
There’s a time and a place I shouldn’t say this out loud
But sometimes it’s simple; you gotta get back up
And I know it’s neithers fault the situation we’re in
But you claim for a loss before I even begin
It’s so painful to see that your never gonna let me win

I know you’re stood right next to me
And I know that there’s a love
But I can only hope when this settles down
It’s still me that you’re thinking of
Why don’t you get back up
Why don’t you get back up

Oh look at those blue eyes turning grey
You’re giving me black eyes almost every day
And threatening to way away
Well on you go
Or just get back up
Get on over it
Get back up
Or get on out

Get back up
Get on over it
Get back up
Or you might as well just get out
