Wake Up Screaming

Used to sleep through the night peacefully

Not a care in the world got to me

But now I lay me down to sleep I'm afraid of what I might see

I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

Used to feel like a man in control unaware of the storm in my soul

The sight of you took away my breath looked so good scared me half to death

I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

Now is this dream I'm in a room all dressed up just like a groom

Watching shadows dancing on the ledge

When suddenly you then appear you whisper in my ear

And I jump right over the edge

Just a dream that I seem to recall won't you tell me which doctor to call

Tell him please I don't feel too well every night I'm hearing wedding bells

I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

[ guitar ]

I lay there in an ice cold sweat sheets are torn and soaking wet

I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

I'm gonna try and stay up all night long honey just for you

Just for you don't you ever leave me alone
