Just Woke Up Lyrics - Kirsty Maccoll

(kirsty maccoll/david ruffy) 

Behind a burning bush he's waiting 

Like a sleepless night 

So silent and so strong 

I know that I must push push push 

Until the morning light 

Don't make me wait too long 

Till I open my eyes 

Open the door 

Take a walk outside 

And feel the sun 

Fall on my skin 

It's time to get up 

But not time to give in 

I just woke up 

With eyes as cold as ice cream 

Floating in a frozen lake 

I have to set the spark 

And stroke the fire within him 

Oh I have to see him smile 

To have a happy heart 

I opened my eyes 

Walked outside and I realised 

That what I saw was there before 

But I opened my eyes 

When I opened the door 

I just woke up 

One day I just woke up 

I opened my eyes 

Opened the door took a walk outside 

And what I saw was there before 

But I opened my eyes when I opened the door 

I just woke up 

Oh let me open my eyes 

Open the door and look up to the skies 

And leave the shore 

And let my hand trail in the cool water 

Float downstream, say goodbye to 

That dream--i just woke up 

I opened my eyes 

I walked outside and I realised 

That what I saw was there before 

But I opened my mind when i 

Opened the door--i just woke up
