Lyrics Wake Up - The Last Royals

Wake Up

Oh no, teacher says the end is quickly coming near
I raise my hand to stretch but also set the record clear
But then I fall into a haze
And in my sleep I count the ways
Oh no, oh no, my heart’s so cold
Oh no, oh no, afraid to grow old
I can’t, I can’t stay tonight
Wake up, wake up, don’t follow the light
Believing everything I read has turned my eyes to dust
Climbing the bookshelves of my mind I try to readjust
But then I fall into a haze
And in my sleep I hear the phrase
Oh no, oh no, my heart’s so cold
Oh no, oh no, afraid to grow old
I can’t, I can’t stay tonight
Wake up, wake up, don’t follow the light
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Attach a letter to your suitcase on your travels, please
Each word and verse should prove the madness of your expertise
I wish you’d fall in to a haze
If I had my way I’d take your place
Oh no, oh no, my heart’s so cold
Oh no, oh no, afraid to grow old
I can’t, I can’t stay tonight
Wake up, wake up, don’t follow the light
Oh no, oh no, my heart’s so cold
Oh no, oh no, afraid to grow old
I can’t, I can’t stay tonight
Wake up, wake up, don’t follow the light
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
You got to wake up, wake up
Please wake up, wake up
You got to wake up, wake up
Please wake up, wake up
You got to wake up, wake up
Oh please wake up, wake up
