The Bancrofts - When I Awoke Lyrics

Had a dream I saw you at the shops, about half past nine
I was working security while you were just wasting your time
But you caught me at the entrance to the red carpark
And you pulled me 'round the corner into the dark
And the things we did defy the words we speak

Your parents saw us there and so we hid away
I ran into the distance 'til the break of day
And you were alone when they chained and dragged you away

And when I awoke, I was alone though you were near
When I awoke, I lost myself in you dear

On the train at night where the shadows meld into walls
I'm waiting in the city, I'm waiting for you to call
The secret begins with an embrace from you
We hold each other close as we embrace the new
And we're all alone because nobody knows we're here

Skin becomes skin as we lose ourselves
But the paranoia feeding makes it burn like hell
And the moment lasts as long as we're still living in it

When I awoke I was alone though you were near
When I awoke I lost myself in you dear

Passion is as precious as the air we breathe
And I inhale you as though you cure all disease
And when I awoke I was drunk on the dreams we made

And when I awoke I was alone though you were near
When I awoke I lost myself in you dear
When I awoke I was drunk on the dreams we made
When I awoke I wished it was a brand new day
