Lyrics for Please Wake Me Up
I put my chips on her shoulder Running in the carnival time She bought the things that I told her They made her eyes sparkle and shine Together we'll ring in the new year I know that she'll be my queen And if I fall asleep in your arms Please wake me up in my dreams Her outfit was all made of vinyl Like nothing I've ever seen When our divorces are final She'll fit right into my scheme Next to the pawnshop's a chapel I'll show you just what I mean And if I fall asleep in your arms Please wake me up in my dreams
