Wake The Sun Lyrics - The Matches

Every dawn gets its day like 

Every frown gets her way like 

Every step to the daylight keeps you stumbling on 

Every backward blackbird 

Standing out through the rafters 

So sure he can meet her 

Thinks he bears a tone 

So wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain 

Wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain 

Wait for, wait for the first train 

Man dragging a sheep skin 

Preaching reeking of weekend 

To the siren speaking tongues of kingdom come 

Every dawn gets its day like 

Every gal gets her way like 

Every step that I lay down brings me where I'm from 

To lay down, lay down, to lay my cross 

Wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain 

Wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain 

Wait for, wait for the first train 

Oh oh, ohhh 

Oh oh, ohhh that train 

Wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain 

Wait for, wait for the first train 

Who hired the walls of the station 

To arrest my imagination 

Profit from my place under the callous thumb 

Every dawn gets its day like 

Man, they blindly parade like 

Every step that we weigh down plays out like a drum 

To wake up, shake up, to wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain 

Wake up, wake up, wake the sun 

Wake up, wake up, hanging like a chain 

Wait for, wait for the first train
