When I wake up early in the morning

Lift my head

I 'm still yawning when I 'm in the middle of a dream

Stay in bed float up stream (float up stream )

Please don't wake me no don't shake me

Leave me where I am

I 'm only sleeping

Ev'rybody seems to think I 'm lazy

I don't mind

I think they 're crazy running ev'rywhere at such a speed

Till they find there's no need (there's no need )

Please don't spoil my day I 'm miles away

and after all

I 'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window

Taking my time lying there and staring at the ceiling

waiting for a sleeping feeling

Please don't wake me, no don't shake me

Leave me where I am

I 'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window

Taking my time

When I wake up early in the morning

Lift my head

I 'm still yawning when I 'm in the middle of a dream

Stay in bed float up stream (float up stream )

Please don't wake me no don't shake me

Leave me where I am

I 'm only sleeping
