Lyrics
Rude Awakenings
Before the knot was tied
He liked all the kissing
He said you were what he needed
Just what his life was missing
Before the knot was tied
He liked touching you
And when others were around
His eyes were just for you
But just when you bite the apple
He turns into a snake
You find he's not a giver
He only wants to take
Chorus: The rude awakenings to come
Are still around the corner
When he takes you as his own
He doesn't need you any longer
So, watch what knot your tying
When you use the word forsake
He may be your one and only
But on the road to heartache
Now kissing hurts his lips
Touching you makes him lose interest
You're not his one and only
You're at the bottom of his list
You're the one he doesn't see
While you're walking arm in arm
The grass looks so much greener
When it's not the grass he walks on
Chorus: The rude awakenings to come
Are still around the corner
When he takes you as his own
He doesn't need you any longer
So, watch what knot your tying
When you use the word forsake
He may be your one and only
But on the road to heartache
He'll rotate his list of excuses
To keep you from catching on
His pretty words will all be lies
The love between you gone
You won't feel what you once felt
After the times he's let you down
There'll be nothing left to believe in
But you'll still be around
No one will see the tears fall
Or hear the silent screams
There is no happily ever after
You're holding on to broken dreams
Chorus: The rude awakenings to come
Are still around the corner
When he takes you as his own
He doesn't need you any longer
So, watch what knot your tying
When you use the word forsake
He may be your one and only
But on the road to heartache.
