Wake Up the Dawn Lyrics by The Living Wells

The Living Wells

2015

[Verse 1: Moshe Friedman]
When the horizon's up, I'm rising up
I wake up roaring like a lion cub
Got too much to do before my time is up
I can fill no less than the entire cup
I release myself from the slumber of sleep
'Cuz sleep offers dreams, but there is nothing to reap
When my eyelids are heavy with a slumber so deep
I pull the floor up under my feet, and I said
[Pre-Chorus: Rick Fox]
Hey-o, hey-o, that's the alarm clock ringing now
Hey-o, hey-o, it's got me singing
[Chorus: Rick Fox]
Wake up the dawn
'Cuz it's time to start moving on
Wake up the dawn
In the morning you can't go wrong
Wake up the dawn
No matter what side you woke up on
Wake up the dawn
'Cuz the day is short, and the work is long
[Verse 2: Moshe Friedman]
Don't underestimate, this ain't for fainthearted
Need a leopard's might to get the day started
The voice of temptation will make it way harder
Think you can outsmart it? That voice is way smarter
Yes he is a trickster, every day he differs
Too early in the summer, too cold in the winter
No permanent cure, no magical elixir
Only way to beat him is to wake up quicker, so
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge: Moshe Friedman]
Never weaken your hold, never seeking to slow
It's your dawn, your day, you can keep in control
Every move, every moment, stay increasing the flow
Otherwise, resistance grows like the yeast in the dough
Better watch your step, there's not much left
After sleep, there's only one stop from death
I hope you brought your best, cuz this is not a test
That's why I live every day like I got one breath
And then I'm gone
[Chorus]
