Lyrics Wake Up - Paul Anka

Wake Up

I close my eyes and find you
In the dreams I had at night
As you live across my memory
Like a shadow in the light
It’s amazing what I tell myself, that I don’t care at all
I think i’ve gotten over you but I take two steps so fall
When all alone it was me who has gone and just to plan to see
Of all the things that touched my life, you’ve been the best for me
And when I wake up, there’s an empty bed to make up
Isn’t easy when you break up, with someone you love like you
What can you do?
And when I rise up, there are tears that fill my eyes up
And it’s too late for me to wise up
Cause I was wrong and now we’re through, what can i do?
I must have tried a hundred the ways, trying to forget
I wind up with the same two things, a glass and cigarette
A man’s a fool, who fools himself, who hides behind his pride
I know too well from tears to fell and all the nights I cry
Amazing what you think of when you sit around at night
With drink in hand I sit there and I blackout like the light
And when I wake up, there’s an empty bed to make up
It isn’t easy when you break up, with someone you love like you
What can you do?
And when I rise up, there are tears that fill my eyes up
But it’s too late for me to wise up
Cause I was wrong and now we’re through, what can i do?
