[Verse 1]
Oh, you never smoked this much before we met
Light up, light up another cigarette
I can tell you're drinking only to forget
Don't know how I got you in such a mess

[Pre-Chorus]
How am I supposed to be your ray of light, your ray of light?
I get dark sometimes, does it pass you by?
I should be your ray of light, your ray of light

[Chorus]
But I'm falling, falling asleep at the wheel
Guess I forgot how to feel
Just for a second, you're talking
But I'm just pretending you have my attention
I'm falling, falling asleep at the wheel
I made you think it was real
If you think we're strong enough
Come on and wake me up

[Verse 2]
You never looked this tense before we met
Back up, back when we were so innocent
All this emotion that we're buried in
Tied up, fired up on this adrenaline
[Pre-Chorus]
How am I supposed to be your ray of light, your ray of light?
Not a cloud in sight, what a perfect night
I should be your ray of light, your ray of light
But that's not me

[Chorus]
And I'm falling, falling asleep at the wheel
Guess I forgot how to feel
Just for a second, you're talking
But I'm just pretending you have my attention
I'm falling, falling asleep at the wheel
I made you think it was real
If you think we're strong enough
Come on and wake me up, wake me up

[Outro]
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
If you think we're strong enough
Come on and wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up
