Testo di James Morrison – The Awakening

I haven’t felt this awake in years
Too busy drying my tears
To feel the sun was shining on my skin
Locked up in my own cage
True love with a bitter rage
Couldn’t see the prison I was in
I walked across the line alone
To find the truth I’d never, ever known
The truth has been here all this time
The only one that couldn’t see is me

And I been waiting for this awakening for so long
so long
And I get a little light inside
And I have holding up for just one thing
And it’s your love
Your love, makes everything feel alright
I was slowly slowly dying
slowly dying
It’s like the first day of my life

Flowed through me like summer breeze
Put my twisted mind at ease
All the troubles of the world just drift away
Jump out like a shooting star
Make a wish to be where you are
Underneath your claw is where I’ll stay
The only place I want to be
Is right with you next to me

An I have waited for this for this awakening for so long
for so long
And I get a little light inside
And I here holding out for just one thing
And it’s your love
Makes everything feel alright
I was slowly, slowly dying
slowly dying
It’s like the first day of my life

I been waiting here for so long
so long, so long, so long
And I want to cross that line alone
To find the truth that I’ve never ever known
The tape has been here all this time
The only one that couldn’t see was me

And I been waiting for this awakening for so long
for so long
And I get a little light inside
And I am holding out for just one thing
And it’s your love
It makes everything feel alright
I said I
I been waiting for so long, so long so long
I been waiting here for so long
