When I Wake
by Elliot Smith
You have a way with words
never seem to care
and it's hard to believe
in something that's not there, or there
never seem to care
and it's hard to believe
in something that's not there, or there
And when I wake
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
When I'm at home, in a world of my own, I stop
And when I wake
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
When I'm at home, in a world of my own
Beneath the land of snow
under the edge of sky
across the Bering Strait
asking himself why, oh why
under the edge of sky
across the Bering Strait
asking himself why, oh why
And when I wake
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
When I'm at home in a world of my own I stop
And when I wake
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
it's the middle of the day and my phone is ringing
When I'm at home in a world of my own
