Standing on the corner in the rain
Looking up at your window again
A long time ago another life and
Though not a boy barely a man

"Just bring whatever you hope to find"
So, I brought my soul and a bellyful of wine

I want to wake up with you
I want to wake up with you
I want to wake up with you
I want to wake up

Outside wind soughing through the leaves
Of silver birch and copper beech
Inside candle shadows, discarded clothes
Incense curling around the bed posts

Bodies bared, confidences shared
You held my eyes, we longingly stared
We just wanted to get higher
Sleepless before the fire

I want to wake up with you
I want to wake up with you
I want to wake up with you
I want to wake up

It was also the year I learned
Summer never really ends
It just moves elsewhere
That falling out of love
With its soul-searching cleanse
Guides us gently into prayer

I got what I wanted but I lost what I had
Nostalgia's got this habit of blowing back
You've got to bring whatever you hope to find
In life as well as in kind

I want to wake up
I want to wake up
I want to wake up
I want to wake up
I want to wake up
I want to wake up
I want to wake up
I want to wake up
