Don’t Wake Me
[Verse 1]
I went to bed, I was thinking about you
Ain't the same since I'm living without you
All the memories are getting colder
All the things I don't wanna do over
I went to bed, I was thinking about you
I want to talk and laugh like we used to
When I see you in my dreams at night
It's so real, but it's in my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
And now
I guess
This is as good as it gets

[Chorus]
Don't wake me
'Cause I don't wanna leave this dream
Don't wake me
'Cause I never seem to stay asleep enough
When it's you I'm dreaming of
I don't wanna wake up

[Verse 2]
I went to bed, I was thinking about you
And how it felt when I finally found you
It's like a movie playing over in my head
Don't wanna look 'cause I know how it ends
All the words that I said that I wouldn't say
All the promises I made that I wouldn't break
It's last call, last song, last dance
'Cause I can't get you back, can't get a second chance
[Pre-Chorus]
And now
I guess
This is as good as it gets

[Chorus]
Don't wake me
'Cause I don't wanna leave this dream
Don't wake me
'Cause I never seem to stay asleep enough
When it's you I'm dreaming of
I don't wanna wake up
Don't wake me
We're together, just you and me
Don't wake me
'Cause we're happy like we used to be
I know
I've gotta let you go
But I don't wanna be alone

[Bridge]
These dreams of you keep on growing stronger
It ain't a lot, but it's all I have
Nothing to do but keep sleeping longer
Don't want to stop, 'cause I want you back!
[Breakdown]
Don't wake me
'Cause I don't wanna leave this dream
Don't wake me

[Chorus]
'Cause I never seem to stay asleep enough
When it's you I'm dreaming of
I don't wanna wake up
Don't wake me
We're together, just you and me!
Don't wake me
'Cause we're happy like we used to be!
I know
I gotta let you go!
But I don't wanna be alone
(Don't wake me)
I went to bed, I was thinking about you (Cause I don't wanna leave this dream)
It ain’t the same since I’m living without you (Don't wake me)
Cause I never seem to stay asleep
I know!
I've gotta let you go

[Outro]
I don't wanna wake up
