Malcolm Middleton – Wake Up lyrics
When I wake up I wake up alone
I sit and I wait and listen for the phone
Only when you're near me do I feel at home
Now you're not with me and I want you to come home

And I'll do the best I can
But I'm a liar, I don't have a plan
And I'll do my best for you but I'm hopeless,
I don't have a clue

When I fuck up, I fuck up so good
I make mistakes and best laid plans can be misunderstood
Sometimes when you're near me I still feel alone,
So put your arms around me then I'll be back home

And I'll do the best I can
I might be pissed but I'll lend a hand
And you know you'll be safe in the night,
I'll be awake and coughing by your side

Don't try to tell me that I'm good cause I know better,
I can call people with the proof
You need never lock your door
I'll never sleep because you snore
And I've never wanted more than I've wanted you

And I'll do the best I can but I'm a liar,
I don't have a plan
And I'll do my best for you but I'm hopeless,
I don't have a clue
And I'll be there when I can
I might be pissed but I'll lend a hand
And you know you'll be safe in the night,
I'll be awake and coughing by your side
