Don't Wake Me Up
Danny Cullen Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a moonlight path
Only some will go
Where we're all together (-gether)

Forget the foolish past
And noone has to know
It'll only get better (better)

I can't stop this now
I won't let you fall down

If you remember that
Your eyes will start to glow
And you’ll never say never (never)

Don't wake me up
I'm going a million miles per hour
I'm jealous of the sky

Don't wake me up
I'm seeing a million people smile
I'm almost at the sky

Don't wake me
Dont wake me
Cause I'm finally alive

Don't wake me

Don't wake me
Cause I'm alive
