You could be my nightmare

You woke me up - It is long before morning And I am bleary eyed All because you woke me up. You wake me up - I promptly regain life And I am falling apart at the seams But you continue to wake me up. You've been waking me up - The reason is beyond me And this exhaustion leaves me clumsy I go to bed knowing you will be waking me up. You have woken me up - Hazy and calm Only to keep me sleeping in your arms I'd roll over and continue because you had woken me up. I have woken up - In a different bed for the past year In a house we do not share I have woken up in his arms (with you waking me up).
