Lyrics

Behind a burning bush he’s waiting like a sleepless night
So silent and so strong
I know that I must push push push until the morning light
Don’t make me wait too long till I open my eyes
Open the door, take a walk outside and feel the sun fall on my skin
It’s time to get up but not time to give in
I just woke up

With eyes as cold as ice cream floating in a frozen lake
I have to set the spark and stoke the fire within me
Oh I have to see him smile, to have a happy heart
I opened my eyes, walked outside
And I realised that what I saw was there before
But I opened my eyes when I opened the door
I just woke up

One day I just woke up
I opened my eyes, opened the door
Took a walk outside and what I saw was there before
But I opened my eyes when I opened the door
I just woke up

Oh let me open my eyes
Open the door and look up to the skies and leave the shore
And let my hand trail in the cool water, float downstream
Say goodbye to that dream
I just woke up, I opened my eyes
I walked outside and I realised that what I saw was there before
But I opened my mind when I opened the door
I just woke up
