"Wake Up" lyrics

"Wake Up"

Been living down the wrong side of town
I should move up to the right
Maybe I should make a move tonight
All alone I hear a sound
A voice within said, "It's just the wind"
A ghost of mist closes in
The early morning is waking up

And the ghost, he sings
"Wake up, wake up, you're allowed to let it out
Nobody knows what you're thinking
Wake up, wake up and bail the water out
Before you start sinking"
"It's just the wind," says the voice within

Been sifting out the dirt in the ground
I've been tryin' to find some gold
Even if I do find something new
When does something new become something old?
All alone I hear a sound
A voice within said, "It's just the wind"
A ghost of mist closes in
The early morning is waking up

And the ghost, he sings
"Wake up, wake up, you're allowed to let it out
Nobody knows what you're thinking
Wake up, wake up and bail the water out
Before you start sinking"
"It's just the wind," says the voice within
And the ghost, he grins
'Cause he knows that it's him
