I was scared to death
Afraid to close my eyes
And find that I was goneLike every other one
Who left before the dawn
I vanished in the air
Am I still there?Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my handWake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cause where I'm at
Is where I wanna leaveAnd in my sleep
I look so lifeless on this bed
Laid out on satin sheetsThis dream's a novel
That I don't dare complete
No happy ending's read
I think the hero's deadWake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my handWake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cause where I'm at
Is where I wanna leaveMe to my slumber
And I'll never come home
Please help me, I'm frightened
Of what's going onAnd if I can't wake up
Will I be all alone
A stranded orphan hereOr will I bump into
Some other wandering soul?
And will they talk to me?
Somebody, somebody please rescue meWake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my handWake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cause where I'm at
Is where I wanna leaveI wanna leave
I wanna leave
I wanna wake up
I wanna leave
I don't wanna stayI wanna leave
I wanna go
I wanna go home
I wanna go homeJust wake me up
I wanna go home
Wake me up please
'Cause I wanna go home
I wanna go homeWake me
Wake me
