Wide Awake

The dawn breaks slowly in the east
- as day defeats the night
The eccho of your voice that greets
The feeble morning light
Is the only answer to my silent prayer
And the promises I never make
You are always with me - your always there
In my dreams - though I am wide awake

And sometimes a forbidden glance
Will give my heart away
The light that kindled our romance
May flicker through the gray
All the gold and silver at the rainbows end
All earthly goods - I'll forsake
For each shooting star - a wish I send
And I dream - though I am wide awake

You were the rolling tidal wave
That swept my barren shores
If you will let me share your day
My life's forever yours
I will never understand the reason why
We fail to learn from our mistakes
I will wait for you as the days go by
With my dream - though I am wide awake
