I Didn’t Want to Wake You Up

"This is a sweet song she wrote for me the day I died spiritually"
The other night I saw you lying there,
I didn't want to wake you up.
The next day I saw you lying there,
I didn't want to wake you up.
The next evening I saw you lying there,
you hadn't moved an inch.
The next day I saw you lying there,
I wished that I could wake you up.

Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.
Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.
Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.
Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.

The next day I shouted in your ear,
I wished that I could wake you up.
The next week I kicked you in the head,
I wished that I could wake you up.
Three days later, you were underground,
I wished that I could wake you up.
Three years later, you're underground,
I wish that I could wake you up.

Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.
Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.
Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.
Sha la, sha la, sha la la la.

The other evening I had a dream,
you came into my head.
I tried to touch you,
I tried to kiss you,
I couldn't wake you up.
My hands went through you,
I grabbed the pillow,
I cut the fucker up.
I really miss you,
I really need you,
I want to wake you up.
Five years later, you're underground,
I wish that I could wake you up.
Ten years later, you're underground,
I wish that I could wake you up.
Fifteen years later, you're underground,
I wish that I could wake you up.
Thirty years later, I'm underground,
I wish that you could wake you up.
