Wide awake full of faith and destiny Am I safe? You're away The red wine makes me fall into sleep I'm awake I can't sleep coz I'm worrying again Wide awake With passion I build up my world Every day having espresso in a cafe I ride Where I ride I don't really know It's inside It's inside but outside it's also nice I seek for adventures, to go very far Further than distance, with my Jaguar Wish I could see myself Wish I could pray for us today The stories are for kids, But this is pure reality, just like you, just like me An old lady sits in a corner With some wisdom on her face She has a long story to tell, An ugly life with full discrace... on her face Wide awake I know there's always a way Anyway, I need to see all the cards of fate I sway By the beauty of the shores of Seine I'm insane It's inside but outside it's also nice I always come back, and I always leave, Looking for something, wish I could be healed Wish I could see myself Wish I could pray for us today The stories are for kids, But this is pure reality, just like you, just like me An old lady sits in a corner With some wisdom on her face She has a long story to tell, An ugly life with full discrace... on her face Wide awake, Let me stay...
