Are you awake?
A quarter after midnight
I'm half-past out of reason
Our bodies still entwined from making love
While You're asleep i tell you what i'm thinking of
In our apartment all the rooms
Have taken on your personality
The living room has overshadowed me
I feel as restless as these bedroom sheets
My inhibitions disappear
Suddenly the words escape
An i make-belive you're listening (i say:)
Baby, are you awake?
My concentration flutters
Like a candle's temperamental flame
Can't talk to you - can't tell you
Can't share this little hell with you
You're slipping through my fingers
I'm falling from your arms
And when i whisper all the secrets that i keep
You probably think i'm talking in my sleep
You reach for me and call my name
And softly breathe against my skin
Your voice is echoing familar sentences
Ohh - You've been listening to every word i said
All my inhibitions disappear
Suddenly the words escape
An i make-belive you're listening (i say:)
Baby, are you awake?
Baby, are you awake?
Baby, are you awake?
