if i fall asleep before we say good night
leave you to get up, switch off the light
but you're not tired
you're just not tired
you can wake me up
if your worries won't let you unwind
too much rolling round and round your mind
so you cannot sleep
can not fall asleep
you can wake me up
and if you jump up from a nightmare and all around is black
yes it's hard to calm down with those visions flashing back
oh you try and shake it off
but it just won't shake off
you can wake me up
and if my big dreams keep me busy
eyes shut to what's around me
and you don't dare to disturb me
'cause the clock will go off early
well it's okay
you can wake me up
any hour at all
you can wake me up
three a.m. or four
you can wake me up
