Twenty years are chasing me And twenty years are facing me down Still there's no real explanation No formal invitation that I've found All this time I heard you talking I never noticed how much I love the sound Now I know it's getting late But I feel better just having you around I'm waking up It's breaking me down It shakes me up When you come around I didn't know it would be like this But I guess my pre-life crisis has arrived I drag my heart behind me Until your voice reminds me I'm alive Now I'm standing in the morning sun Wondering what I've done to get this far As I step out from the shadows I can see just who you are I'm waking up It's breaking me down It shakes me up When you come around When you come around Suddenly you were older, bolder So much more to think about This song has always been inside me Just took me twenty years to get it out I'm waking up It's breaking me down It shakes me up When you come around
