Hope I Don't Wake

Steve Hackett

Hope I don't wake in the morning

Find you running right away

Every hour I'm down and worried

Dream about it night and day



To many places you can go

When drowning in your sleep

But no one wants to lie awake

For hours counting sheep



I'm fine what about you

OK tell me the news

We all know how to fight

When there's something to lose

In my mind I feel elation - oh, oh oh



Hope I don't wake in the morning

Find you running right away

Every hour I'm down and worried

Dream about it night and day



For many days I know you'll go

Surrounded by four walls

By yourself you'll stay inside

Behind your own front door



I'm fine what about you

OK tell me the news

We all know how to fight

When there's something to lose

In my mind I feel elation - oh, ooh ooh



Hope I don't wake in the morning

Find you running right away

Every hour I'm down and worried

Dream about it night and day



Well I need to be on my way

Hope to get through another day

Well you know what shape I'm in

And it seems I can never win



Oh oh

Hope I don't wake in the morning

Find you running right away

Every hour I'm down and worried

Dream about it night and day
