Free Cee Please Fake Me Up

PLEASE FAKE ME UP

Please wake me up when things still made sense
and the things you do no longer made me tense
wake me when i'd awake to a good morning my sweet
please wake me up three days before you and I came to meet

things were simpler then on those days gone by
when I still believed little children were able to fly
but now those kids are tethered to the ground
and their laughter isn't half as wondrous a sound

please wake me up three days from now
when i'll learn how sad life can be and you'll show me how
please awake me three days before my ice cream began to melt
and I'd forgotten how love and devotion really felt

please wake me up three years from years of sorrow and tears
and waking up next to a woman who dispensed frigidness and fear
please awake me three days before sadness filled my head
and four days from when I still couldn't wait to join you in bed
