[Verse 1]
If I could stay away
Would you notice I was gone?
The silence says that you don't care
And the promises you made
Are fading after all
It's obvious that you're not there

[Chorus]
Please don't wake me up
I might sleep forever
Cause the sun shines cold on me
Again
Please don't wake me up
I might sleep forever
I don't wanna hear the lie today
Tomorrow won't be okay

[Verse 2]
And I'm followed by the sound
Of a laugh that warmed the air
From a ghost that haunts me everywhere
And I wonder where you are
A thousand times a day
I tried but I can't walk away

[Chorus]
Please don't wake me up
I might sleep forever
Cause the sun shines cold on me
Again
Please don't wake me up
I might sleep forever
I don't wanna hear the lie today
Tomorrow won't be okay

[Bridge]
Like a statue I wait
Frozen in sorrow
And on and on
And on and on it goes
And it's always the same
For a thousand tomorrows
And on and on, and on and on it goes
[Chorus]
Please don't wake me up
I might sleep forever
Cause the sun shines cold on me
Again
Please don't wake me up
I might sleep forever
I don't wanna hear the lie today
Tomorrow won't be okay

If I could stay away
Would you notice I was gone?
