MIKA — By the Time

[Intro] Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up [Verse 1] It's the early morn, lights flick on Sleepy eyes peek through the blinds at something wrong Motionless remains the mess Shame, such a beautiful, beautiful young life [Chorus] By the time I'm dreaming And you've crept out on me sleeping I'm busy in the blissful unaware And by the time I'm dreaming And you've crept out on me sleeping Tell me how am I supposed to care [Post-Chorus] Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up [Verse 2] A trail of clothes two years old Why did you have to go and leave all this stuff behind Wasn't I allowed three strikes and out No, but you said I could, said I could just one night [Chorus] By the time I'm dreaming And you've crept out on me sleeping I'm busy in the blissful unaware And by the time I'm dreaming And you've crept out on me sleeping Tell me how am I supposed to care [Bridge] Would I had let you go, let you go Could this be different, different Now I'll never know, never know I didn't get the chance, damn you Would I had let you go, let you go Would this be different, different Now I'll never know, never know I didn't get the chance, damn you [Chorus] By the time I'm dreaming And you've crept out on me sleeping I'm busy in the blissful unaware And by the time I'm dreaming And you've crept out on me sleeping Tell me how am I supposed to care [Post-Chorus] Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up Don't wake up, won't wake up, can't wake up No, don't wake me up
