Wake Me Up

Wake me up
I’m having a bad dream
Wake me up
I’m having a real bad dream
My baby’s gone,  somebody shake me
My baby’s gone
Someone please wake me

Dreaming the dream
I dreamt the night before
Her bags are packed, sitting by the door
I beg and plead oh “mon chéri amour”
Baby, don’t go
Don’t say goodbye

If I’m awake
I’m having a bad day
If I’m awake I’m having a real bad day
There’s something off
Shake me
As I sleepwalk
My heart is breaking

Dreams of wine, talk and caviar
Using every line, from my repertoire
But in the end, It’s always “au revoir”
And so, I cry
And so, I cry
Somebody wake me


Dreaming the dream
I dreamt the night before
Bags in hand she’s walking out the door
I beg and plead “mon chéri amour”
Baby don’t go
Don’t say goodbye

Wake me up
I’m having a bad dream
Wake me up
I’m having a real bad dream
My baby’s gone, shake me
My baby’s gone
Someone please wake me
