Wake

Sleeping Girl
Cynthia Garcia 


Walking talking sleeping faith
Living running sleeping grace
Make me take me slap my face
Wake me wake you.

Sleeping dancing breathing girl
Crying trying shaking girl
Ask him show him believe him to
Wake him wake you.

Know it feel it live it every day
Just as you did that day in May
When you saw the world your first time
And all became a question.
At the drop of a dime.
The day he woke you waking him

Trust the sun and hold the sky
Barry your pain and let it die
Never to live again 
To wake you wake him.
The wind is slow and storms are shy
Its time to fly
All the way beside his bed
To shake him from his sleepless rest
So wake now and wake him this is your test.
