Wake up from the dream

Baby wake up from that dream you have dreamt your whole life
I am the girl you used to adore
Now you wonder why the world turned its back on me
I tried to tell you the world was cruel
But you refused to listen
You were so naive to it all
Look at you now
Baby wake up from that dream you have dreamt your whole life
I ran away from the world
There was nothing left for me there
Maybe this time you will listen to my words
The world is cruel and will ruin your dreams
Baby wake up from that dream you have dreamt your whole life
Give me one more chance to explain who I am
I'm not that girl you think I am
I fake a smile so you don't see the pain
Someone once told me I couldn't be sad it just wasn’t me
Wow, baby did I have them fooled
Baby wake up from that dream you have dreamt your whole life
I let you go so long ago
I am reaching out my hand to you
I want you back
Run with me before we have a chance to look back
Make me happy once again
Baby wake up from that dream you have dreamt your whole life
I let my head drop
The people who all that time tried so hard to ruin me got their pleasure
Take my words for granted now
Hold your head high there are people who would kill to see you fail
Don't look down on me I'm human just like you
I've been pushed down and helped back up by the same people
Baby wake up from that dream you have dreamt your whole life
Don't make me look back now I've got so far to go still
I'm stepping off the world to fly high in the sky
For now I just need a break from it all
I'm sorry I really am but it's something I have to do
Let go baby it will be okay
It's the only thing I ask
I promise I'll see you soon
Goodbye for now, don't worry baby
I'll be standing there waiting for you
Right in front of those pearly gates with God holding my hand
Baby I promise just wake up from that dream you have dreamt your whole life
I'm waiting for you
