[Verse 1]The nights are getting shorterI don’t know where they goAnd I am getting olderAnd it's starting to show[Pre-Chorus 1]And ever since I left my motherIt’s much harder to knowHow to make my own life hereHow to make my own home[Chorus]I don’t want to wake up lonelyI don’t want to just be fineI don't want to keep on hopingForget what I have in mindI don’t want to wake up lonelyI don’t want to just be fineI don't want to keep on hopingForget what I have in mindForget what I have in mind[Verse 2]I remember the time when a kiss on the hand was enough'Cause we knew we were freeAnd we knew what it meant to be loved[Pre-Chorus 2]But ever since I left my fatherIt’s much harder to knowHow to live my own life hereWhen all I need is home[Chorus]I don’t want to wake up lonelyI don’t want to just be fineI don't want to keep on hopingForget what I have in mindI don’t want to wake up lonelyI don’t want to just be fineI don't want to keep on hopingForget what I have in mindForget what I have in mind[Bridge]As faces start to fadeThey’re slipping through my handsIt's where my heart was madeAnd my feet will always land[Chorus]I don’t want to wake up lonelyI don’t want to just be fineI don't want to keep on hopingForget what I have in mindI don’t want to wake up lonelyI don’t want to just be fineI don't want to keep on hopingForget what I have in mindForget what I have in mindI don’t want to wake up lonely
