Come Awake - Deacon Blue

When the daylight comes

And come it will

I’ll get all my things

And creep down the hall

I’ll light that ring

For my first cigarette

Walking out to the morning

Pulling on your jacket

I can no longer watch

I can no longer wait

I can no longer hope

I have come awake

That persistent sun

Will warm my face

Lighten my steps

Till hours later

I’ll come back

Throw my coat on the floor

We’ll talk tomorrow

When tonight is over

I can no longer watch

I can no longer wait

I can no longer hope

I have come awake
