WakeMeUpInTheMiddleofaDaydream

Ties her shoes, combs her hair
It's not the same
Her life is a game
But the rules have changed

Looking out, longing for
The world she knew
Empty faces and the space
Draped in shades of blue

She sees his face in the night
He haunts her dreams
She can't bear the pain
So she doesn't sleep


Wake me up in the middle of a daydream
Wake me up before the silence gets me
Somewhere there has to be a refuge
Wake me up before I start to miss you


Ties her shoes, combs her hair
It's not the same
She braces herself
For brand new day

"Just a few baby steps,"
Her friends all say
"Find another man to love
And you'll be okay"

When that love comes around
He won't be me
I'm one of a thousand things
That she can't see


Wake me up in the middle of a daydream
Wake me up before the silence gets me
Somewhere there has to be a refuge
Wake me up before I start to love you


I came so far for her heart
Risked it all
Just to watch her go

Can't compare to the dead
She's obsessed
And she'll never know

My love confessed is best,
He's dead
But I'm the ghost
And the choice is set in stone


Wake me up in the middle of a daydream
Wake me up before the silence gets me
Somewhere there has to be a refuge
Wake me up before I start to miss you

Wake me up in the middle of a daydream
Wake me up before the silence gets me
Somewhere there has to be a refuge
Wake me up before I start to love you

Wake me up in the middle of a daydream
Wake me up in the middle of a daydream
