lyrics

wake me when it’s dark. wake me when it's cold. wake me when the streets have emptied out and all the bars have closed. wake me when the stars are ready to explode. tell me when it’s safe. tell me you’re alone and i can get some rest and stop myself pacing with the telephone. peering through the blinds. i need you on the line. wake me when it’s dark and all the ghosts appear. wake me when your heartstrings pull so hard your head aches from the fear. wake me when you’re here and all the voices clear. tell me when it’s safe. tell me when we've won. tell me when we’ve made the truth ring out and got the fascists on the run. tell me we’ll be fine. tell me you are mine. tell me do not dream it’s over. that I’m not the only one. but inside your dreams whatever they be dream a little dream of me.
