Lyrics

Wake up honestly
The world has no honesty
But you belong here with me
So wake up

All our dreams can be
Our living, breathing dreams
But you need to be with me
So get up
Get up

You sleep in the fallen leaves
You haunt me in my broken dreams
I see you looking and hearing me
But you won’t do what I need
Please wake up
Please wake up

Fall into line going
One hand at a time
I realise you are not mine
And never were
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Let me find you in my mind
I hold you close one last time
Then let you go

Now you sleep in the fallen leaves
You haunt me in my broken dreams
I see you looking and hearing me
But you won’t do what I need
Please wake up
Please wake up

Don’t (x6)

Leave me behind
Haven’t the time to tell you
All I need you to know
You never told me you were leaving       (x2)

Don’t (x6)

Don’t leave me behind
Haven’t the time to tell you
All I need you to know
You never told me you were leaving

Don’t (x2)

Don’t leave me behind
I haven’t the time to tell you
All I need you to know
You never told me you were leaving
