They were tearing down a desert highway
Like a bullet through the still of the heat
He was pointing at the constellations
She was sleeping in the passenger seat
You said, "we're finally gonna get out
I think we're finally gonna get out, yeah
Oh I can feel it
I'm finally waking up
I'm finally waking up, I know
I'm finally waking up (I'm waking, I'm waking)
I'm finally waking up, I know (I'm waking, I'm waking)
We were caught up in an endless circle
Always looking for a place we could dream
We were swimming in the deepest ocean
Wondering why we couldn't find any beach
You said, "we're finally gonna get out
I think we're finally gonna get out, yeah
Oh I can feel it
I'm finally waking up
I'm finally waking up, I know
I'm finally waking up (I'm waking, I'm waking)
I'm finally waking up, I know (I'm waking, I'm waking)
In the black night, melting away
As the red sun rolls in its place
She sat up stretched and reached for the edge of the sky
Then opened her eyes and woke up
I'm finally waking up, I know
I'm finally waking up
Waking up
N.C.
I'm finally waking up
I'm finally waking up, I know
I'm finally waking up (I'm waking, I'm waking)
I'm finally waking up, I know (I'm waking, I'm waking, wake up)
