Feeling my way through the darkness. Guided by a beating heart. I don't know where my journey will end, but I know where it starts. They tell me I'm too young to understand, that I'm caught up in a dream. Life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes. That's fine by me. So wake me up when it's all over. When I'm wiser and I'm older. All this time I was finding myself. And I didn't know I was lost. Wake me up when it's all over. When I'm wiser and I'm older. All this time I was finding myself. And I didn't know I was lost. Tried carrying the weight of the world, but I only have 2 hands. I hope I get a chance to travel the world, but I don't have any plans. Yeah. I wish that I could stay forever this young, not afraid to close my eyes. Life's a game made for everyone, and love is the prize. So wake me up when it's all over, when I'm wiser and I'm older. All this time I was finding myself. And I didn't know I was lost. So wake me up when it's all over. When I'm wiser and I'm older. All this time I was finding my step. And I didn't know I was lost.
