That's When I Wake Up

Half asleep now bed half empty Still I reach out half expecting Warm skin against my hand There's a cold linen sheet instead I'm wide awake now lean and listen But you wont come back it slowly sinks in Drift off and I forget That I'm waking up alone and losing you again Cause when I fall asleep Suddenly everything seems like it's back the way it was And all the pain is gone and my mind plays along Seems like we never called it off And just as our lips touch That's when I wake up I tried to move on but no one warned me That I'd start over every morning I should kick the sheets off and start my day But it's easier to lie here in the bed I made And I shouldn't be surprised when I open my eyes But it gets me everytime Cause when I fall asleep Suddenly everything seems like it's back the way it was And all the pain is gone and my mind plays along Seems like we never called it off And just as our lips touch That's when I wake up And I go back in time Damn near every night Hearin' you callin' my name Feelin' you shake me awake Whisperin' New York can wait Cause when I fall asleep Suddenly everything seems like it's back the way it was And all the pain is gone and my mind plays along Seems like we never called it off And I see memories As I start to lean in for the kiss I missed so much But just as our lips touch Reminds me what I've lost And that's when I wake up (Hearin' you callin' my name) (Feelin' you shake me awake)
