Waking Up Dreaming - Shania Twain

Waking light, it grew from the shadow Brace yourself to the morning low Night is gone, long way turning You've waited long enough to know When the memory leaves you Somewhere you can't make it home When the morning comes to meet you Lay me down in waking light No one sees you here, roots are all covered There's such a life to go and how much can you show? Day is gone on a landslide of rhythm It's in your lamplight burning low When the memory leaves you Somewhere you can't make it home When the morning comes to meet you Rest your eyes in waking light When the memory leaves you Somewhere you can't make it home When the morning comes to meet you Open your eyes with waking light

To do this in 2 minutes, Eternity in an hour Promised impossible of course as all the patients descibe it They could only say it isn't, it isn't, it isn't, it isn't! Trying to tell people what it is When of course I don't know any of our friends that have taken it that haven't said this one thing in common: Well! I never knew anything like that in the whole of my life And one or two people have said to me I've said it to myself That's what death is going to be like. And oh what fun it will be Well I mean that there are the colours, the beauty, the designs The beautiful waves, things appear People themselves There are people that I thought dull, appear fascinating, interesting, mysterious, wonderful But that's only the beginning Suddenly you notice that there aren't these seperations That we're not on the seperate islands shouting across to somebody else trying to hear what they are saying and misunderstanding You know, You used the word yourself: empathy These things flowing underneath We are parts of a single continent underneath the water And with that goes such delight; The sober certainty of Waking Bliss

Is this better, tell me there's a better way I'm not afraid I'm not gonna hide from the vultures above, serpents below They wanna lay me to rest, but I won't go Yeah Is it better to die than live another day I'm not afraid I'm not gonna run from the scars and within, burning your skin They wanna lay me to rest, but I won't go Yeah I won't go I wanna stand up, a hundred feet tall 'Cause fear will never lead the way I'm ready to run, a hundred miles strong I will never be the same Waking the lions in me I'm waking the lions in me Waking the lions in me Waking the lions in me Burning to ash, I'll die until I rise again I'm not afraid I'm not gonna stop 'til I break down this cage Escape from this chase You'll never silence my voice No, I won't go No, I won't go I wanna stand up, a hundred feet tall 'Cause fear will never lead my way I'm ready to run, a hundred miles strong I will never be the same Waking the lions in me I'm waking the lions in me Waking the lions in me Far way too long, I slept inside the dark But now I rise, it's time to make a move Waking the lions in me (oh, oh oh) Waking the lions in me (oh, oh oh) Waking the lions in me (oh, oh oh) I wanna stand up, a hundred feet tall (oh, oh oh) 'Cause feel we never lead my way (oh, oh oh) I'm ready to run, a hundred my strong (oh, oh oh) I will never be the same (oh, oh oh) I wanna stand up, a hundred feet tall 'Cause fear will never lead my way I'm ready to run, a hundred miles strong I will never be the same Waking the lions in me (oh, oh oh) I'm waking the lions in me Waking the lions in me (oh, oh oh) Waking the lions in me I'm waking the lions in me (oh, oh oh) I'm waking the lions in me

Five years old at a wishing well Just throwing pennies as a little girl Wishing life was like a fairy tale It only comes true if you never tell Eighteen years still wondering Still looking up, still believing But I'm blowing dandelions against the wind Does life always go like this? So just keep on dreaming One day you'll see You can wish for the world, but still what'll be will be It ain't always easy, ain't always smooth Life ain't about whether you win or lose And they say that dreams don't always come true, but that's okay I'll keep dreaming anyway Twenty-five, looking at the midnight sky Watching shooting stars fly by Wishing I'd find the perfect guy I've learnt that love ain't easy to find So just keep on dreaming One day you'll see You can wish for the world, but still what'll be will be It ain't always easy, ain't always smooth Life ain't about whether you win or lose And they say that dreams don't always come true, but that's okay I'll keep dreaming anyway So just keep on dreaming One day you'll see You can wish for the world, but still what'll be will be It ain't always easy, ain't always smooth Life ain't about whether you win or lose And they say that dreams don't always come true, but that's okay I'll keep dreaming anyway I'll keep dreaming everyday Seventy candles on a birthday cake Turns out life is what you make

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع

You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Any place is better Startin' from zero, got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me, myself, I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just across the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs Finally see what it means to be living See, my old man's got a problem He lives with the bottle, that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his Mama went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said, "somebody's got to take care of him" So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it fast enough so we can fly away? Still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car We go cruisin', entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job So I work in a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me would find it I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away? You still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way
