wake me gently lyrics

I was scared to death
Afraid to close my eyes
And find that I was gone

Like 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 hand

Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cause where I'm at
Is where I wanna leave

And in my sleep
I look so lifeless on this bed
Laid out on satin sheets

This dream's a novel
That I don't dare complete
No happy ending's read
I think the hero's dead

Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand

Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cause where I'm at
Is where I wanna leave

Me to my slumber
And I'll never come home
Please help me, I'm frightened
Of what's going on

And if I can't wake up
Will I be all alone
A stranded orphan here

Or will I bump into
Some other wandering soul?
And will they talk to me?
Somebody, somebody please rescue me

Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand

Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cause where I'm at
Is where I wanna leave

I wanna leave
I wanna leave
I wanna wake up
I wanna leave
I don't wanna stay

I wanna leave
I wanna go
I wanna go home
I wanna go home

Just wake me up
I wanna go home
Wake me up please
'Cause I wanna go home
I wanna go home

Wake me
Wake me
