I woke up before you and I watched you sleep,
I wanted to wake you up from dreams I'm sure that were sweet.
But you were awake, you were watching me,
I heard your voice whispering with squinted eyes
"Don't wake me up!
I want to keep sleeping!
Please fall back asleep!
Don't wake me up!"
Later, still in bed, we watched it get dark
I remember you fell asleep on my arm.
While I looked off into the sky getting dark,
Saw your face formed in clouds
And you looked right at me and said
"You just fell asleep, this is your dream.
I'll be coming down soon, or you'll come up to me.
Don't wake me up!"
