When I wake up

early in the morning

Lift my head,

I'm still yawning

When I'm in the

middle of a dream

Stay in bed,

float upstream

(float upstream)

Please don't wake me

No, don't shake me

Leave me where I am

I'm only sleeping

Everybody seems to

think I'm lazy

I don't mind,

I think they're crazy

Running everywhere

at such a speed

Till they find

there's no need

(there's no need)

Please don't spoil

my day I'm miles away

And after all

I'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye

on the world going

by my window

Taking my time

Lying there and

staring at the ceiling

Waiting for a

sleepy feeling

Please don't spoil

my day I'm miles away

And after all

I'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye

on the world going

by my window

Taking my time

When I wake up

early in the morning

Lift my head,

I'm still yawning

When I'm in the

middle of a dream

Stay in bed,

float upstream

(float upstream)

Please don't wake me

No, don't shake me

Leave me where I am

I'm only sleeping
