Both Kenny Rogers, Jr and Sheena Easton cut this, he put in on 'Yes, No, Maybe', but Danny Sembello's performance of this song here, well, story of a songwriter's life, yes? Pop Love song. Urgent and Ironic Love song.Hit song.
LyricsSay you'll wait for what you want just a little longer
And it won't cut you down when it comes around to you-
And I won't be the one backing down,
Watching the sun go down
In my own home town
Again-
And I don't know that you still love him-
You say it over and over again
CH
Don't wake me up from my dream
If you do it won't come true-
Dont wake me up from my dream
So far, So true
It's all that's left of you
V2
You look as if you want somebody
But you turn them away, and
You come back to me again
Anything I want to see is there
But the ones that I want seem to vanish in thin air
And I don't know that you still love him-
You say it over and over again
CH
Don't wake me up from my dream
If you do it won't come true-
Dont wake me up from my dream
So far, So true
It's all that's left of you
Guitar Solo
Bridge
I still love you
You don't mind, do you?
I still dream of you
If that could change things then
There's nothing I couldn't do.
CH
Don't wake me up from my dream
If you do it won't come true-
Dont wake me up from my dream
So far, So true
It's all that's left of you
