Angels

Wake me if you're out there

Through the glass in my bedroom window

In the bushes far below

I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow

Among the ones I so clearly know

I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged

With a note on the rocking chair

That says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved

So wake me if you're out there

Living close to the ground

It's seventh heaven cause there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

So wake me if you're out there

Wake me if you're out there

In the dust on my cellar staircase

A pair of footprints followed me

I saw a flicker in the fake fireplace

Blinked again but there was nothing to see

I've been leaving all the windows unlocked

With a basket by the oak tree

Cause I'll be picking up the acorns that fall off

If you'll be climbing up to meet me

Living close to the ground

It's seventh heaven cause there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

So wake me if you're out there

I keep my knees black and blue

Cause they often hit the hardwood floor

Wake me if you're out there

And I believe so I'm not praying to the ceiling anymore

And I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged

With a note on the rocking chair

That says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved

So wake me if you're out there

Living close to the ground

It's seventh heaven cause there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

The indications reveal

Wake me if you're out there

That few of us realise life is quite so real

So if you're dying to see

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity

So if you're dying to see

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity
