didn't mean to wake up

i came so close to paradise

the feelings were so true

you cried for me to come home

now

i was crying too

we said so many things in anger

there seems little left to do

than put the pen to paper

i can't write good-bye to you

i didn't mean to wake up

from the dream that was my life

i didn't mean to wake up

i can't stop the changes now

when you wake up in the morning

don't look for me

i'll be gone

there's a letter on the table

with best regards from john

i didn't mean to wake up

from the dream that was my life

i didn't mean to wake up

i can't stop the changes now

i came so close to paradise

the feelings were so true

you cried for me to come home

now i'm crying too

i didn't mean to wake up

from the dream that was my life

i didn't mean to wake up

i can't stop the changes now
