SKILLET
"Don't Wake Me"
(John Cooper / John L. Cooper / Brian Howes)

I went to bed I was thinking about you
Ain't the same since I'm living without you
All the memories are getting colder
All the things that I want to do over
Went to bed I was thinking about you
I want to talk and laugh like we used to
When I see you in my dreams at night
It's so real but it's in my mind

[Pre-Chorus:]
And now
I guess
This is as good as it gets

[Chorus:]
Don't wake me
Because I don't wanna leave this dream
Don't wake me
Because I never seem to stay asleep enough
When it's you I'm dreaming of
I don't want to wake up

I went to bed I was thinking about you
And how it felt when I finally found you
It's like a movie playing over in my head
Don't want to look because I know how it ends
All the words that I said that I wouldn't say
All the promises I made that I wouldn't break
It's last call, last song, last dance
Because I can't get you back, can't get a second chance

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus:]
Don't wake me
Because I don't want to leave this dream
Don't wake me
Because I never seem to stay asleep enough
When it's you I'm dreaming of
I don't want to wake up
Don't wake me
We're together just you and me
Don't wake me
Because we're happy like we used to be
I know I've got to let you go
But I don't want to be alone

[Bridge:]
These dreams of you keep on growing stronger
It ain't a lot but it's all I have
Nothing to do but keep sleeping longer
Don't want to stop 'cause I want you back

[Chorus]

I went to bed I was thinking about you
Because I don't want to leave this dream
It ain't the same since I'm living without you
Because I never seem to stay asleep enough
I know I've got to let you go
But I don't want to wake up
