Wake Me Up Just To Call Me Sleeping Beauty
I have a new addiction. Her name is Sarah Jaffe. There is something about these stripped down performances where it’s just the singer and their one instrument that gives me the chills.
Here are the lyrics so you can sing along.
“Vulnerable” by Sarah Jaffe
you’re such a baby
it’s just a nose bleed
leave me for a while
so you can go and cry
didn’t I say that
you make it up
twist my words around
flip them upside down
you cannot stay here
you must go home
it’s nearly 3 o’clock
and now I’m seeing spots
wake me up just to call me
sleeping beauty
oh fine
that’s fine
I got my hands up
I’m feeling vulnerable
one more message
it could not hold
so you go to option B
drive 20 miles to see me at my worst
and off to work
think of random things to say
then leave me for the day
wake me up just to call me
sleeping beauty
oh fine
that’s fine
I got my hands up
I’m feeling vulnerable
all your theories
on why I am
so complex all the time
you try to pick my mind
but what about you
you’re so vague
and everything you tell
is what keeps me coming back
wake me up just to call me
sleeping beauty
oh fine
that’s fine
I got my hands up
I’m feeling vulnerable
I hope you enjoy it. There are a lot of live versions of this on you tube, but I haven’t watched any yet.
Also, when I’m not listening to stuff like this I swear I’m listening to tough stuff. You know, like Wu Tang Clan and whatnot.
