I ve been dreaming such a long time
And I ve been waiting for the sunshine
But all my friends they say I m getting by with sleeping in
They say I m sleeping in
You know whenever I try I want to get it right
But I distract my focus and blur my own sight
Cause I ve convinced myself that my best can only come in the moonlight
And I keep sleeping in
I keep on sleeping in
And missing something
(Close your eyes before the daylight breaks)
There are things about me I just can t ignore
I know I want to change and I see that door
On the other side daylight decides there will be war with sleeping in
Oh, I know they ll be no more sleeping in
I wait, I wait, I wait only in jest
I wait, I wait, I wait with no need to rest I wait
The day, the day, the day will come again, I say
A ray of light can only get in if I say
I ve been putting off this purification a rebirth
And a regeneration inside of me
And I ve been saying no for far too long
Even though something brand new is coming out of me
I m going to wake up, wake up every morning and then decide
I m going to wake up, wake up every morning and make it mine
Rain or shine
I wake, I wake, I wake and greet the day
The light is on the change is made I can see my way
The day, the day, this day has come again
Each ray of light will make its way into the core of me
I always knew that I was missing something
I know this time that I will leave nothing up to chance
And in the wake of this brand new day I see the light
And I feel the sun and I ll do it all again tomorrow
