Exile – Woke Up in Love, is a song written by J.P. Pennington, and recorded by American country music group Exile. It was released in November 1983 as the second single from the album Exile. The song was Exile’s second country hit and the first of ten number one singles on the country chart. The single went to number one for one week and spent a total of twelve weeks on the country chart.
Exile had been performing since the mid-1960s, both as a touring and recording act. After adopting a pop-rock style in the early 1970s, the group reached the peak of its success in 1978 with the song “Kiss You All Over”; that song spent four weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Subsequent singles fared far less successfully.

Exile – Woke Up in Love lyrics
Somewhere in the night
Fell in love with you
Wandered through my dreams
And you stole away my blues
All of a sudden a random feeling
Opened up inside
And I don’t know where jump through the
Or make my darling cry
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
Am I still dreaming
Is it supposed to feel this way
Running around with a foolish grin
Painted all over my face
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
Used to run around
In no particular direction
I ran across a lot of pretty women
But I couldn’t make a connection
Light night when you held me tight
You turned my life around
And I opened up my eyes this morning
Said, “look what I found”
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
Am I still dreaming
Is it supposed to feel this way
Running around with a foolish grin
Painted all over my face
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
Am I still dreaming
Is it supposed to feel this way
Running around with a foolish grin
Painted all over my face
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
Am I still dreaming
Is it supposed to feel this way
Running around with a foolish grin
Painted all over my face
Woke up in love with you
Oh, what a beautiful day
GENIUS
