Angels

Wake me if you're out there

Through the glass in my bedroom window

In the bushes far below

I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow

Among the ones I so clearly know

I was sleeping with the night light unplugged

With a note on the rocking chair

That says, "I've been dreaming of the life I once loved,

So wake me if you're out there."

Living close to the ground

Is seventh Heaven cuz there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

Wake me if you're out there

Wake me if you're out there

In the dust on my cellar staircase

A pair of footprints followed me

I saw a flicker in the fake fireplace

Blinked again but there was nothing to see

I've been leaving all the windows unlocked

With a basket by the oak tree

Cuz I'll be pickin' up the acorns that fall off

If you'll be climbing up to meet me

Living close to the ground

Is seventh Heaven cuz there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

Wake me if you're out there

I keep my knees black and blue

Because they often hit the hard wood floor

(Wake me if you're out there)

And I believe so

I'm not praying to the ceiling anymore

I was sleeping with the night light unplugged

With a note on the rocking chair

That says, "I've been dreaming of the life I once loved,

So wake me if you're out there."

Living close to the ground

Is seventh Heaven cuz there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

The indications revealed

(Wake me if you're out there)

That few of us realize life is quite surreal

So if you're dying to see

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity

So if you're dying to see

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity
