Awake
George feat. Zimmer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cold as a mountain, that tries so hard to reach the sky
There's no fire inside me, I put it out when I started to cry
There's no plans for tomorrow, only darkness that comes at night
And I try to('n) follow, all the stars that seem so bright
And I am lost...

Hours are passing, I feel strong but I am not there yet...
Despite I'm drowsing, I can't sleep while sweating in my bed...
I want to feel what is normal, when lots of thoughts
Keep running thought my head...
And I seek for some comfort, that brings hope to my freezing stare

Oh I miss those times the good old days that were full of dreams!
All the restful nights I was able to succeed...
Oh I miss those times the good old days that were full of dreams!
All the restful nights I was able to complete...
I try not to forget who I used to be

Night is coming... I see the sun going away from me... it's color
Is changing its fading out becomes one with the sea... but I know what I'm seeing...
It's so clear what is supposed to be...
And the ocean is showing more than I can ever

See
See
Feel
See

Oh I miss those times the good old days that were full of dreams!
All the restful nights I was able to succeed...
Oh I miss those times the good old days that were full of dreams!
All the restful nights I was able to complete...
I try not to forget who I used to be

Oh I miss those times the good old days that were full of dreams!
All the restful nights I was able to succeed...




Oh I miss those times the good old days that were full of dreams!
All the restful nights I was able to complete...
