Before I Wake Songtext
von Shop Assistants

Sometimes when I read the news
My heart grows cold at what I view
Though I laugh and tell myself
Of course it′s not and I'm being silly
I wonder if the end can really be near

Remember when they made me pray,
"If I should die before I wake"?
When I cry you and laugh to say
That I wasn′t going to anyway
And know that nothing could hurt me when you were here


If all my hopes should come to nothing
I know that I'll return to you
And when I feel the end is coming
It makes me want to run home to you

Sometimes I think we'll never see tomorrow
Sometimes I think that it′s just as well
Sometimes I can′t bear to think at all
And I turn my face towards the wall

If I should die before I wake
I want to lie with you beside me
Feel the last warmth of your body
Hold you so close up against me
That I can see no farther than your eyes


And we'll have one last night together
And see the last time we′ll have together
Cause I don't want to live without you
I don′t want to live without you
I don't want to live without you
