about

A gentle, intimate lullaby of hope with guitar, hammer dulcimer and strings, it is a call to someone to wake up, there is light ahead, even in the darkness. It is a song of understanding, support and love.

lyrics

WAKE UP SLEEPY EYES
AND TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE
BEHIND THE CURTAIN OF YOUR DREAMS
WHERE YOU HIDE AWAY FROM ME
I WATCH YOU MAKE YOUR MOVIES
OUT OF SECRETS YOU HOLD DEEP
BUT IF YOU WANT TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT
IT CAN’T BE DONE ASLEEP

WAKE UNTO LIGHT UNBROKEN
YOU WILL NOT SEE YOUR SHADOW FOLLOW
TAKE HEART IN WORDS UNSPOKEN
SO YOU WON’T FEEL AFRAID

FOR TOO LONG YOU LIVED A VISION
WHERE YOU HAD TO DRAW A LINE
BETWEEN SOME LAND OF INDIFFERENCE
AND THE NEED TO FIND A SIGN
BUT FANCY IS AS FANCY DOES
AND IT’S NEVER BLACK AND WHITE
SO OPEN UP YOUR EYES MY DEAR
OR YOUR FEAR WILL RULE THE NIGHT

WAKE UNTO LIGHT UNBROKEN
YOU WILL NOT SEE YOUR SHADOW FOLLOW
TAKE HEART IN WORDS UNSPOKEN
SO YOU WON’T FEEL AFRAID

LIFE IS HARD ON LIVING
THAT’S BEEN YOUR POINT OF VIEW
SO YOU SLEEP IT ALL AWAY
IN REVERIE AS TRUTH
I CAN ONLY OFFER TO YOU
WHAT YOU NEVER KNEW
FOR I KNOW THE DREAMS YOU HAVE, MY LOVE,
I HAVE THEM TOO

WAKE UNTO LIGHT UNBROKEN
YOU WILL NOT SEE YOUR SHADOW FOLLOW
TAKE HEART IN WORDS UNSPOKEN
SO YOU WON’T FEEL AFRAID
WAKE UNTO LIGHT UNBROKEN
YOU WILL NOT SEE YOUR SHADOW FOLLOW
TAKE HEART IN WORDS UNSPOKEN
SO YOU WON’T FEEL AFRAID
SO YOU WON’T FEEL AFRAID
SO WE WON’T FEEL AFRAID
