Don't Wake Me Lyrics


You took your heart and broke down the wall
Even though I thought that I had seen it all
The water's still, it looks so clear
I'm gonna get lost inside and I will disappear
But now I only wanna hide away
Don't wake me, I'm in deep
Don't break me, I feel weak
I've tasted, now I'm wasted and I can't let go
Your love is all I wanna know
And I pray beyond the stars
And that you and me will stay just like we are
And I don't care if it's all a dream
But that's where I am and where I wanna be
But now I only wanna hide away
Don't wake me, I'm in deep
Don't break me, I feel weak
I've tasted, now I'm wasted and I can't let go
Your love is all I wanna know

And I can't promise you anything
'Cause I don't know what love's gonna bring
So stay with me in this dream
'Cause when I come around, when I come around
All might be another way
Don't wake me, I'm in deep
Don't break me, I feel weak
I've tasted, now I'm wasted and I can't let go
Your love is all I wanna know
You took your heart and broke down the wall
Even though I thought that I had seen it all

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Sam Hopkins was born on March 15, 1912 in Centerville, Texas. In 1920, at the age of eight, Hopkins met and played with the legendary Blind Lemon Jefferson, even becoming Jefferson's guide for a short time. Hopkins' cousin, the great bluesman, Texas Alexander, was another influence. Their musical partnership was broken up by Hopkins' time in Houston's County Prison Farm during the 1930s. When Hopkins made his way to Houston's Third Ward in 1946 he was introduced to Lola Anne Cullum, a talent scout who had pieced together deals with companies such as Aladdin Records out of Los Angeles.
