Yesterday we watched the colours fade
As shadows danced across your fragile face
And on the inside we're dying just to let you know
We're there and that we care (that we care)
So close your eyes and drift beyond the stars
And light our way , we'll be okay (we'll be okay)
The love you shared was strong and true
We're who we are because of you
Wake me up when it's over
I swear I should have told her
Everything she has meant to me, yeah
Take me back to October
When I could have told her
Everything she has meant to me , goodnight my sweet Lerlene
All the places that I've seen
Will never compare to the dreams and vivid memories
Of the words you said that set me free
We all struggle in this life
Breathing doesn't mean you're alive
Hold on to the ones you love, chase your dreams
The love you shared was strong and true
We're who we are because of you
Wake me up when it's over
I swear I should have told her
Everything she has meant to me, yeah
Take me back to October
When I could have told her
Everything she has meant to me , yeah
Wake me up when it's over
I swear I should have told her
Everything she has meant to me, yeah
Take me back to October
When I could have told her
Everything she has meant to me , goodnight my sweet Lerlene
