Lyrics Awake My Body - Alex Ebert

Awake My Body

Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey
Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey
Body
Awake my body
You can’t turn your cheek
When you’re falling asleep
And you’re cold
Awake my body
They took me to the station
Dropped me on my knees
Ask me my vocation
I’ll tell you if you please
I trained my toes in tapping
Specializing in concrete
A day you won’t believe just happened
I heard a voice that came to me
It said «my body, my toes
My heart, my skin, my nose
My organs for you to play»
Now I believe believer will lead to healer
Yes, now we have all our faith
Come on, take me.
All the way
Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey
Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey
Body
Awake my body
Don’t hide my eyes
I wanna see
Don’t hide my ears
I wanna hear
Don’t hide my tongue
From anyone
I wanna tell, heaven and hell
I won’t hide my heart
It won’t break apart
I know they’ll be sharing
They’ll be sharing all the way (all the way)
Awake now
Body awake now
Awake now
Body awake
Awake now
Body awake now
Ah see them caring
See them sharing
All the way, all the way
Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey
Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey
Body
Awake my body
You can’t turn your cheek
When you’re falling asleep
And you’re cold
Awake my body
Be hold
All the way
