The River's Invitation Songtext

von Percy Mayfield

Can't stop falling in love unless you go away86 Drops down the gutter fade
Fill my lungs with your scent until they explode
I will pretend I'm alone
I lay down and take it til' the pain is dead and gone
Father says you'll shake it I can't help but feel he's wrong
Wake me up when it feels right
All of the nights you spent alone
Wake me up when there's sunlight
All of the nights we couldn't sleep
Only a friend
Only a smile
You're wanted back in my heart now
Wake me up when it feels right
All of the nights you couldn't sleep
[Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I should I die before I wake
I pray the lord my soul to take
(Wake me up when it feels right
Wake me up when there's sunlight)
When you were in heaven I was in heaven
You are the only thing that I love
And now I'm forsaken you are forsaken
Everything I love breaks
Only a friend
Only a smile
You're wanted back in my heart now
Wake me up when it feels right
All of the nights you couldn't sleep
I'll stop falling along the wayside
When you stop coming home to my heart
Just wake me up when you can come home
