Sleeping single in a double bed

Thinking over things I wish I'd said

I should've held you, but I let you go

Now I'm the one sleeping all alone. Oh

Sleeping single in a double bed (Oooh, oooh, oooh.)

Tossing, turning, trying to forget. (Ah, ah, ah.)

I could be lying with you instead

I'm sleeping single in a double bed

I'd pour me a drink, but I'd only be sorry

'Cause drinking doubles alone don't make it a party

Another sleepless night and it's the same old story

When you're the only one at two in the morning

I'm sleeping single in a double bed (Oooh, oooh, oooh.)

Thinking over things I wish I'd said. (Ah, ah, ah.)

I should've held you, but I let you go

Now I'm the one sleeping all alone. Oh

Sleeping single in a double bed (Oooh, oooh, oooh.)

Tossing, turning, trying to forget. (You, oooh.)

I could be lying with you instead

I'm sleeping single in a double bed

I'm sleeping single in a double bed (Ah, ah, ah.)

Thinking over things I wish I'd said. (Oooh, oooh.)

I should've held you, but I let you go

Now I'm the one sleeping all alone. Oh

Sleeping single in a double bed (Ah, ah, ah.)

Tossing, turning, trying to forget. (You, oooh.)

I could be lying with you instead

I'm sleeping single in a double bed

I'm sleeping single in a double bed

Thinking over things I wish I'd said
