I Awoke Lyrics


James Yorkston I Awoke


Did you lay with the shallow girl
Did you wake with her warmth by her side
What are these tales that are reaching my ears
Yes I awoke and I awoke by her side
Yes I awoke and I awoke by her side

Were you close were you lovers were friends
Did she play with and blacken my good name
Did she cry out and reel you in
Yes she cried out and I shall never feel the same
Yes she cried out and I shall never feel the same

Could you want her could you need her more than I, More
than I

And of love you swore un-blinding
Of the strength that you promised me
Dare I hope dare pray dare I ask

When you awoke did you think of me
When you awoke did you think of me

Could you want her could you need her more than I, more
than
Could you want her could you need her more than I, more
than
