EN
Wake me, wake me my darling Shake me if I cry out, will you? Wake me, wake me my darling In the city, my dreams aren't my own If the shelter holds Oh light of mine Sing me a song Of brand new grace Of how we are breaking How we'll hang on Or let go Wake me, wake me my darling Tell me just before dawn comes Wake me, wake me my darling With a touch, cool on my thigh A fire will start And ruin the pines Wishing I only had his heart Craving a king Of edges and lines Now jagged and lightning Wake me, wake me my darling See me, see how I've laid too long Wake me, wake me my darling In the morning meet me again With head and heart Wide and awake Hot bread and butter break again Will you my darling? Will you hang on? How have I come to dream at all?
