Wake Up And Dream Lyrics - Deacon Blue

I need to wake up soon 

So very soon 

Into the light zone 

Into the light 

I`m falling forwards 

And into sight 

And running backwards 

And falling down 

They cheer they cheer 

Under a piercing and 

Blinding light 

The crowd all gather 

Singing 

Right on right on 

But there`s no dark corner 

Only 

Centre stage 

The crowd gets restless 

I begin to say 

I don`t know if you know 

I care I`m here 

I`m only barely holding on 

To something that is real 

I`ll stand up to the noise and light 

Until everything requires 

I might be heard 

Or else wake up 

And dream 

Dream 

Dream 

He`s so good looking 

The traffic stops 

He`s a politician 

A heavenly cop 

Words of healing 

Fall from his lips 

Lifting up the weak 

Is in his gift 

People say yeah 

To the hall of office 

And the foreign stage 

Maybe at last 

The world`s a 

Better place 

He`s brought down swiftly 

By the 

Hand of fate 

The people weep 

And the thought remains 

When you fight for every breath 

Do you stop to think about your friends or do you 

Realise 

That in that moment separating life and death 

You want to take what you can get 

And maybe 

Only wake up 

But not 

Dream
