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.
