Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You used to be my closest ally, uh-huh
In this cold, cold world of deception and lies, uh-huh
We would defend and protect one another (One another)
Now I can't tell if we're enemies or lovers
[Verse 2]
So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves?
When we gonna wake up, baby?
It's time for loving
When we gonna wake up, my baby?
Before it's too late?
[Verse 3]
Oh, baby, where did we go wrong, baby? Uh-huh
Did this cold, cold world turn us into stone? Well
Now all I battle is your ego and your pride
It's ticking like a time bomb, ready to ignite, hurting me to fight
[Verse 4]
So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves?
When we gonna wake up, baby?
It's time for loving
When we gonna wake up, my baby?
Before it's too late?
[Verse 5]
When we gonna wake up, baby?
It's time for loving
When we gonna wake up, my baby?
Before it's too late?
[Verse 6]
When the smoke clears
What will be left for us but tears and pain?
Why must we argue over the same things
Just to make up and go back again?
It's never too late, but it's been too long
Can't get it right when no one thinks they're wrong
Gotta get out of bed and take a look at what's going on
[Verse 7]
Oh, when we gonna wake up, baby?
It's time for loving
When we gonna wake up, my baby?
Before it's too late?
[Verse 8]
When we gonna wake up, baby?
It's time for loving
When we gonna wake up, my baby?
Before it's too late?
[Verse 9]
When we gonna wake up, baby?
It's time for loving
When we gonna wake up, my baby?
Before it's too late?
[Verse 10]
Oh, baby
Oh, darling
When we gonna wake up
When we gonna take a look and see
What's going on
Oh, what's going on
'Cause we're wasting so much time
And we're 'bout to lose it all
Oh, baby, baby, baby
Said, I need you, baby
Oh, I need my baby home
Bring my baby back to me
Oh, wake up
Oh, wake up
Oh, baby, baby, baby, wake up
Oh, wake up
Wake up
