Don’t Wake Me Up
[Verse 1]
You came to me in seamless sleep and slipped right in
Behind my eyes, on the back of my mind
We swam a sea of pretty sights and chandelier skies
I swore I could feel you breathe, it was all so real to me
[Pre-Chorus]
The light, it slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away, oh
[Chorus]
Don't wake me up, I am still dreaming
The story's undone, unraveled at the seams
Don't wake me up, death is misleading
And when I fall asleep, sleep with a ghost
[Verse 2]
I moved in the dark, the room calm and cold, the quiet hollow
I am such a haunted soul, your ghost has gone, the bed is so cold
[Pre-Chorus]
The light, it slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away, oh
[Chorus]
Don't wake me up, I am still dreaming
The story's undone, unraveled at the seams
Don't wake me up, death is misleading
And when I fall asleep, sleep with a ghost
[Bridge]
Oh, you were a fire caught in a storm
Memories, like embers keep us warm
You will leave me in the morning
Leave me
[Outro]
The light, it slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away, oh
The light, it slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away, oh
The light, it slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away, oh
