Song Description
WAKE UP
lyrics by Scott Tournet
One day you're gonna wake up/ with something else on your
mind
you'll open your eyes understanding/ all that you needed was
time
Nothing lasts forever/ though it seems you always break the
rule
You gave it your heart, right from the start/ now you're playing
the fool.
Oh a oh/ you can't let go/ its all around you
you can let go/now that its found you
you can't let go
The beginning was so perfect, it took away all the fear
(but it) chased from your mind all that was kind/ whispering
into your ear
A little bit will make it alright/bring back the color(s) and the
sound
keeping your nerves at a standstill/ then bury them into the
ground
Oh a oh/ you can't let go/ its all around you
you can let go/now that its found you
when you know/ nothing is perfect (last chorus) you can't let
go
The change took a while to surface. now it's written all over
your face
The look in your eyes, we all recognize no longer "floating in
space"
When the day came to reach your hand out, somebody picked
up the call
Exit the haze, find better days, you're not the first one to fall
Oh a oh/ you can't let go/ its all around you
you can let go/now that its found you
when you know nothing is perfect. you can't let go, can't let
go, can't let go.
