Wake Me

Lyrics

Like a rock that came rolling down the hill
 I've been searching for something to kill
 I'm shameless, and I've aimlessly drawn
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 I wanna close my eyes
 And, I've a good girl waiting
 If I ain't back soon, she may be gone
 Hmm, mmm, mmm
 It's all the same
 It's enough to hold her close
 But I'm in need of pleasant dreams
 So I cried to the doctor, doctor, please come quick
 My world's grown tired and sick
 If it ain't fixed, I fear it may fall
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 Lay down and die
 Well, the Doc just smiled and said in a good while
 Son, sometimes don't we all
 Hmm, mmm, mmm
 It's all the same
 But, it's enough to hold her close
 But, I'm in need of pleasant dreams
 So won't you wake me
 In the morning light
 Wake me, when the morning comes
 Well, I ran outside to shout
 So loud it shook the earth
 So loud it chilled the air and cleared the sky
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 Down by her side
 And I've been going too long to crawl back now
 And crumble in her eyes
 I see a lock and a key and clock on the wall
 And I swear I hear her singin'
 The air smells sweet
 And I do think there's coffee in it
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 Long as time abides
 And with that morning sky above
 We can share our love with the sleep still in our eyes
 Hmm, mmm, mmm
 It's all the same
 It's enough to hold her close
 But, I'm in need of pleasant dreams
 Wake me
 In the morning light
 Wake me
 When the morning comes
 Wake me
 In the morning light
 Wake me
 When the morning comes
 Like a rock that came rolling down the hill
 I've been searching for something to kill
 I'm shameless, and I've aimlessly drawn
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 I wanna close my eyes
 And, I've a good girl waiting
 If I ain't back soon, she may be gone
 Hmm, mmm, mmm
 It's all the same
 It's enough to hold her close
 But I'm in need of pleasant dreams
 So I cried to the doctor, doctor, please come quick
 My world's grown tired and sick
 If it ain't fixed, I fear it may fall
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 Lay down and die
 Well, the Doc just smiled and said in a good while
 Son, sometimes don't we all
 Hmm, mmm, mmm
 It's all the same
 But, it's enough to hold her close
 But, I'm in need of pleasant dreams
 So won't you wake me
 In the morning light
 Wake me, when the morning comes
 Well, I ran outside to shout
 So loud it shook the earth
 So loud it chilled the air and cleared the sky
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 Down by her side
 And I've been going too long to crawl back now
 And crumble in her eyes
 I see a lock and a key and clock on the wall
 And I swear I hear her singin'
 The air smells sweet
 And I do think there's coffee in it
 I wanna lay down somewhere
 Long as time abides
 And with that morning sky above
 We can share our love with the sleep still in our eyes
 Hmm, mmm, mmm
 It's all the same
 It's enough to hold her close
 But, I'm in need of pleasant dreams
 Wake me
 In the morning light
 Wake me
 When the morning comes
 Wake me
 In the morning light
 Wake me
 When the morning comes
