[Hook]
Wake me if you're out there

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been sleeping with the night light unplugged
With a note on the rocking chair
That says, "I'm dreaming of the life I once loved
So wake me if you're out there."

[Chorus]
Livin' close to the ground
Is seventh Heaven 'cause there are angels all around
Among my frivolous thoughts
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

[Hook]
Wake me if you're out there
Wake me if you're out there

[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been leaving all the windows unlocked
With a basket by the oak tree
'Cause I'll be picking up the acorns that fall off
If you'll be climbing up to meet me

[Chorus]
Livin' close to the ground
Is seventh Heaven 'cause there are angels all around
Among my frivolous thoughts
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

[Hook]
Wake me if you're out there

[Bridge]
I keep my knees black and blue
'Cause 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

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been sleeping with the night light unplugged
With a note on the rocking chair
That says, "I'm dreaming of the life I once loved
So wake me if you're out there."
[Chorus]
Livin' close to the ground
Is seventh Heaven 'cause there are angels all around
Among my frivolous thoughts
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

[Chorus 2]
The indications reveal
(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

[Outro]
So if you're dying to see
I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity
