Waking Up - Mj Cole

Waking Up - Mj Cole Lyrics

I love you with open eyes
I need you not to understand
And trying is the only way
I told you I cannot be saved
I'm waking up, I can see it all
I'm waking up
Can I breathe? Can I love for you?
'Cause I know you want me too
Letting me burn, letting me burn

You know me
You know what I've done
You told me, sleep, beautiful one
When only the moonlight shone
You'd hold me 'till my heart was numb

I'm waking up, I can feel it all
I'm waking up
I can breathe, I can love for you
And I know that you want me too
Letting me burn, letting me burn

Is it alien to you, to love me like you do?
It's alien to me to stay asleep
Is it alien to you, to love me like you do?
'Cause it's alien to me to stay asleep

I can see it all, I'm waking up
Can I breathe? Can I love for you?
And I know that you want me too
And I know that you want me too
