wake me

Singer:mandolin orange

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

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

it's enough to hold her close

but i'm in need of pleasant dreams

won't you wake me

in the morning light

wake me

when the morning comes

i ran outside and 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

as long as time abides

and with that morning sky above

we can share our love with 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

hmmm

mmm

mmm

hmmm

mmm

mmm.
