wake me up lyrics – avicii

feeling my way through the darkness
guided by a beating heart
i can’t tell where the journey will end
but i know where to start
they tell me i’m too young to understand
they say i’m caught up in a dream
well life will pass me by if i don’t open up my eyes
well that’s fine by me

so wake me up when it’s all over
when i’m wiser and i’m older
all this time i was finding myself
and i didn’t know i was lost

so wake me up when it’s all over
when i’m wiser and i’m older
all this time i was finding myself
and i didn’t know i was lost

i tried carrying the weight of the world
but i only have two hands
i hope i get the chance to travel the world
but i don’t have any plans
i wish that i could stay forever this young
not afraid to close my eyes
life’s a game made for everyone
and love is the prize

so wake me up when it’s all over
when i’m wiser and i’m older
all this time i was finding myself
and i didn’t know i was lost

so wake me up when it’s all over
when i’m wiser and i’m older
all this time i was finding myself
and i didn’t know i was lost

i didn’t know i was lost
i didn’t know i was lost
i didn’t know i was lost
i didn’t know i was lost

so wake me up when it’s all over
when i’m wiser and i’m older
all this time i was finding myself
and i didn’t know i was lost…
