Wake Up, Bittersweet Love
By Shanta Paloma

Tell me stories
In a stranger's bed
about a stranger's fears
and a stranger's head
Watch me struggle with another lonely soul

I watch 'cause I wanted to be you
And for you to be me
For us to be true to ourselves
And for WE to be

Wake up, wake up!
The magic's been made
And for me this is just an ordinary day!

I'm dreaming
I'm never really asleep
and I am never really awake
I'm trying to keep you from being my next mistake

I dwell between a breath and an exhale
While my passions arise
I will never touch your lips
Or be guided by your eyes

Wake up, wake up
The magic's been made
And for me this is just an ordinary day

And I crave (and I crave)
Bittersweet love (bittersweet love)
The unattainable wave (yeah)
And I fly the shackled wings of a dove

(1, 2...1, 2, 3, 4)

Crazy baby
They say they wanna tame me
But no matter how hard they try
My thirst is deeper than the well
And desire leaves me satisfied

Wake up, wake up
The magic's been made
And for me this just an ordinary day

• Ordinary day!

And I crave (and I crave)
Bittersweet love (bittersweet love)
The unattainable wave (yeah)
And I fly the shackled wings of a dove...
