You Woke Me Up

You woke me up

From a dream I never wanted to leave.

You said you loved me

And would never dream of hurting me.


You said it was real

When it was all a lie.

You made me think

That you wanted to try.


You didn't realise

How much I loved you.

You made me believe

That you loved me too.


I wanted us to be a team

Against all odds.

Our weird jigsaw pieces in place,

Yet you saw them flawed.


You gave me everything I dreamed

And you took me out of it.

You woke me up.

You woke me up.

And you didn't realise the effect you had on me.
