[Verse 1]
I dreamt you were leaving on a train
[?] to the knees by your side
I watched ghosts of the evening slip away
The past kissed the future goodbye
All the times I should have stopped you
Seemed to drown me in the flood
I still need you like some unforgiving drug
Will you be there when I wake up
[Verse 2]
When fear is a good thing, when you're young
Keeps passion and anger alive
But don't allow strength to come undone
Don't fashion your faith to subside
For each story about failure
Is a story about love
Evеry page turns on mere consеquence and luck
Will you be there when I wake up
[Bridge]
Cast aside all the paintings and pictures
Of everything you used to be
Criticise all the fact and the fiction
It's bringing you misery
[Verse 3]
Hey, I hope you're listening, Emily
A fire's burned out, I confess
But sometimes it's better to be free
So I wish you a sweet happiness
For I'm weary of these feelings
That I only give in song
Now I realise all we used to have is gone
And I won't see you when I wake up
Wake up, wake up
