Wake me up when it's over,
|
Wake me up when it's done,
|
When he's gone away and taken everything,
|
Wake me up.
|
|
Wake me up when the skies are clearing,
|
When the water is still,
|
'cause I will not watch the ships sail away so,
|
Please say you will.
|
|
If it were any other day,
|
This wouldn't get the best of me.
|
|
But today I'm not so strong,
|
So lay me down with a sad song,
|
And when it stops then you know I've been,
|
Gone too long.
|
|
But don't shake me awake,
|
Don't bend me or I will break,
|
Come find me somewhere between my dreams,
|
With the sun on my face.
|
|
I will still feel it later on,
|
But for now I'd rather be asleep.
|
