Wake up My Love

About Wake up My Love

"Wake Up My Love" is a song by English rock musician George Harrison from his 1982 album Gone Troppo. Released as the A-side of the album's lead single, it peaked at number 53 in the United States but failed to chart in Britain. Harrison included the track on his 1989 compilation album Best of Dark Horse. As with his previous single, "Teardrops", the song was an attempt by Harrison to make his music sound contemporary, to appease the commercial concerns of Warner Bros. Records. Disillusioned with the 1980s pop scene, Harrison refused to promote the release and withdrew from music-making for over four years. In the opinion of Ultimate Classic Rock critic Nick DeRiso, "Wake Up My Love" sounds "as dated an item as any Beatles-related '80s release this side of [Paul McCartney's] 'Spies Like Us'". more »

Here I go again
Hear that knockin' won't you let me in
Only want that same old thing
Yet it's me here ring, ring, ring

I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in

Well you know it's me out here
Can't give up now let us make that clear
All I've had's the run around
Though I'm barking like some hound

I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in

I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in

My life's been so many ways
Too much darkness gets me crazed
All around us people fight
Christ I'm looking for some light

Inside your love
Wake up my love
And let it in

I don't have no friends of mine
Who can swing me down that vine
Not much sense in what I do
That is why I'm calling you

Inside my love
Wake up my love
And let it in
I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in
I want your love
Wake up my love
And let it in
