Wake me up in the morning,
wake me up today. I wanna hear your voice and see your face, it might give me a reason to stay.
I wanna make up a little story,
pretend I’m bound for glory
and act like there’s nothing to say.
How can you miss me if I don’t go away? I know you’ve heard it before,
and I’ve laughed as I’ve said it day after day. There ain’t no truth to the matter, and there ain’t no one to blame, after all this time everything’s the same.
I wanna sit right down and look in your eyes, I wanna see what there is to see. I wanna see which one of us will be the first to take off their disguise.
The sun will stream through the
window The wind will whip up the trees. The birds will make sounds that are all around and I’ll still do what I please.
How can you miss me if I don’t go away? I know you’ve heard it before,
and I’ve laughed as I’ve said it day after day. There ain’t no truth to the matter, and there ain’t no one to blame, after all this time everything’s the same.
Wanna go back to the way it was before, when all seemed so simple and true. Maybe I’d say the things I’ve never said, talk about me and you.
