First kiss, first touch

First time you ever said it back

When I close my eyes, I still remember

Too much, too fast

Too good to ever make it last

And when I woke up, you were gone

Now I keep dreaming of falling back to sleep

Cause I know you will be waiting there for me

And every breath keeps me praying for the night

Cause I know you're on the other side

But I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

Since you went away

I'm wide awake

Last hope, last chance

Last time I ever felt alive

Was before the morning pulled you under

Tonight, too close

To lose the only thing that I

Ever believed could save me now

Now I keep dreaming of falling back to sleep

Cause I know you will be waiting there for me

And every breath keeps me praying for the night

Cause I know you're on the other side

But I'm wide awake

But I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I can't escape

I'm wide awake

Now I keep dreaming of falling back to sleep

Cause I know you will be waiting there for me

And every breath keeps me praying for the night

Cause I know you're on the other side

But I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

Since you went away

I'm wide awake

But I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake
