Wake up, Wake Up - Tullycraft

You seem resigned to find a frequency

Somehow I still believed in alchemy

The secrets we were told, they never turned to gold

Untie, untwist, until the brake lights blind us

The radio they called it Caroline

From ship to shore can we get a crime

We sank ‘With Sympathy' in 1983

A heavy handed touch of symbolism finds us

Near the road whose great fame was owed to pending coronation

Near the road, in absence we’re told

We’re gonna wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)

And I don’t wanna be the one who loved you

Wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)

We fell asleep without a sound

Turn around

Turn around and finally brave the night

A single moon, a single satellite

Picked up a souvenir to prove that we were here

We trade nostalgia from the comfort of the bar stool

I’ve seen your friends, I hear you’re married now

With every single dare I dare avow

Somehow I made it worse and simplified the verse

We lied awake with thoughts we’d pilfered from the art school

Still you know the breakwaters slow the waves of California

Still you know there’s nowhere to go

We’re gonna wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)

And I don’t wanna be the one who loved you

Wake up (wake up) too soon (too soon)

We fell asleep without a sound

Turn around
