Wide Awake Songtext
von Jamie O’Neal

My baby loves to hold me in his arms and gently touch my face
As we lie there close together late at night
In our own special place
It′s like I'm driftin′ off to heaven
As he does that thing that only he can do
He moves his lips in little ways that let me know he's in heaven too

He's snoring again and I′m wide awake
It′s like a NASCAR race being run on his face
And the bed starts to tremble and shake
I try to roll him over, I kick him with my feet
Hell, I gotta wake him up so I can get some sleep
For a moment he's quiet and then
He′s snoring again


In the morning he wakes up so happy
And lookin' all refreshed
While I count the lines and the dark circles
′Cause I ain't had no rest
Oh, the day seems to drag along and I can′t wait to get myself in bed
But soon that old familiar sound
Comes crashin' in my head

He's snorin′ again and I′m wide awake
It's like an old buzz saw shaking up the walls
And I′ve had more than I can take
I'm glad to hear he′s breathin'
I know he needs his rest but that snorin′ and that wheezin'
Sure puts me to the test
Gonna make him go sleep in the den
He's snorin′ again

He sleeps just like a baby but he sounds just like a tank
He knows that I adore him but when he gets to snorin′
I have to grab his hair and yank

He's snoring again
And you know who you are out there

Oh, I′ve had more than I can take
I'm glad to hear he′s breathin'
I know he needs his rest but that snorin′ and that wheezin'
Sure puts me to the test
Gonna make him go sleep in the den
He's snorin′ again


Oh, just like a nightmare that won′t ever end
He's snorin′ again
What's a girl to do
