Lyrics Wake up, Wake Up - Tullycraft

Wake up, Wake Up

You seem resigned to find a frequency
Somehow I still believed in alchemy
The secrets we were told, they never turned to gold
Untie, untwist, until the brake lights blind us
The radio they called it Caroline
From ship to shore can we get a crime
We sank ‘With Sympathy' in 1983
A heavy handed touch of symbolism finds us
Near the road whose great fame was owed to pending coronation
Near the road, in absence we’re told
We’re gonna wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)
And I don’t wanna be the one who loved you
Wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)
We fell asleep without a sound
Turn around
Turn around and finally brave the night
A single moon, a single satellite
Picked up a souvenir to prove that we were here
We trade nostalgia from the comfort of the bar stool
I’ve seen your friends, I hear you’re married now
With every single dare I dare avow
Somehow I made it worse and simplified the verse
We lied awake with thoughts we’d pilfered from the art school
Still you know the breakwaters slow the waves of California
Still you know there’s nowhere to go
We’re gonna wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)
And I don’t wanna be the one who loved you
Wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)
We fell asleep without a sound
Turn around
