Allan Gary Wake Up Screaming Lyrics

Wake Up Screaming Lyrics

(Jim Lauderdale/John Leventhal)

 

 Used to sleep through the night peacefully

 Not a care in the world got to me

 But now I lay me down to sleep

 I'm afraid of what I might see

 I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

 

 Used to feel like a man in control

 Unaware of the storm in my soul

 The sight of you took away my breath

 I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

 

 Now in this dream I'm in a room

 All dressed up just like a groom

 Watchin` shadows dance in the ledge

 Suddenly you then appear you whisper in my hear

 And I jump right over the edge

 

 Just a dream that I seem to recall

 Can't you tell me which doctor to call

 Tell him please I'm not feelin too well

 Everynight I'm hearin` wedding bells

 I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

 

 I lay there in an ice cold sweat

 Sheets are torn and they're soakin` wet

 I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

 I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

 I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by
