Michael Patrick Kelly - Awake lyrics

Long ago, little child
"You do what you're hold!"
Daddy tamed you, too wild
So "Act like you're old!"
Then mommy had to go and you
Had to star the show
And almost buried your fire

Awa-awake, awake my inner child
Awa-awake, and bring me back to life
Awa-awake, awake my inner child
(awake, awake)
Awa-awake and let me dance in the wild
(awake, awake) all alone in the dark
No one heard you cry
Holding on to your spark
And hoping for light

But those years are long ago
And it's time to welcome home your new fire

Awa-awake, awake my inner child
(awake, awake)
Awa-awake, and bring me back to life
(awake, awake)
Awa-awake, awake my inner child
(awake, awake)
Awa-awake, and let me dance in the wild
(awake, awake)

Run away, old man run away
Run away, old man run away
Run away, old man run away from me
Run away, old man run away
Run away old man run away
Run away, old man run away from me
Your new fire

Awa-awake, awake my inner child
(awake, awake)
Awa-awake, and bring me back to life
(awake, awake)
Awa-awake, awake my inner child
(awake, awake)
Awa-awake, and let me dance in the wild
(awake, awake)
