Wake Me Gently

# **Wake Me Gently** 🌙🚪 **[Verse 1]** If I’m sleeping, let me rest, Quiet is what helps me best. Unless it’s needed, let me be, Give me space and privacy. Don’t throw the door wide, flood the room, Don’t turn my morning into boom! Six people standing round my bed? No thank you — one will do instead. **[Pre-Chorus]** Knock on the door, Wait for a sign, Give me a moment, Give me some time. **[Chorus]** **Wake me gently, wake me slow,** Give me ten minutes before I have to go. One calm person, one quiet voice, That’s the kindest, easiest choice. If I’m asleep and nothing’s wrong, Please just let me sleep along. No crowd, no chaos, no surprise— **Wake me gently when it’s time to rise.** **[Verse 2]** I don’t need six voices saying my name, All at once like some strange game. One person knocking, speaking low, Giving me time to wake up slow. Don’t wake me right when I have to leave, Then wonder why I cannot breathe. Ten little minutes can change the day, Giving my sleepy brain time to find its way. **[Pre-Chorus]** Knock on the door, Give me a clue, Tell me what’s happening, And what I need to do. **[Chorus]** **Wake me gently, wake me slow,** Give me ten minutes before I have to go. One calm person, one quiet voice, That’s the kindest, easiest choice. If I’m asleep and nothing’s wrong, Please just let me sleep along. No crowd, no chaos, no surprise— **Wake me gently when it’s time to rise.** **[Bridge]** If it’s urgent, yes, come in, Wake me up and tell me what’s happening. But if it can wait, then let it wait— Sleep doesn’t need a six-person debate! No gathering around me, No shouting through the room, No army at my bedside Making everything go **BOOM!** Just one familiar voice saying, “Morning, you’ve got ten.” Give me time to wake properly, And I’ll be ready then. **[Breakdown]** One person. One knock. One gentle voice. Ten minutes. A little patience. A much better choice. 💜 **[Final Chorus]** **Wake me gently, wake me slow,** Give me ten minutes before I have to go. One calm person, please — not six, That’s a simple thing to fix. If I’m sleeping, let me stay, Unless I’m really needed right away. Respect my rest, and you’ll soon see— **A calmer wake-up means a calmer me.** **[Outro]** Knock first… Speak softly… Give me time to open my eyes. No crowd. No chaos. No sudden surprise. And if there’s no reason For waking me yet… **Let me sleep. I’ll wake when I’m ready. Please don’t forget.** 🌙💤
