‘Don’t Wake Me’ is the third song from Skillet’s 2009 album ‘Awake’. John Cooper tells us the story of a broken relationship for something that has happened(death of one person, broken trust, departure of one person, or simply the things aren’t the same as they were before) so everyone can really re...
[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
