Chris Brown Don’t Wake Me Up

“Don’t Wake Me Up” finds Chris clinging on to a past love, which he can now only experience while he’s asleep. The intro, spoken by Priscilla Renea, attests to this. While Chris is asleep, he is at his happiest with this girl, and he pleads to never be woken up because he doesn’t want to return to reality, where he’s no longer with this girl.

“Don’t Wake Me Up” is an upbeat EDM track co-produced by Benny Benassi, and was released as the fourth single from Fortune. The track was initially recorded for Madonna’s MDNA album; however, didn’t make the cut due to “time constraints.”

“Don’t Wake Me Up” charted well around the world, and was a top 10 hit in the United States.

Lyrics

[Intro: Priscilla Renea]
Dearly beloved, if this love only exists in my dreams
Don’t wake me up

[Verse 1: Chris Brown]
Too much light in this window, don’t wake me up
Only coffee, no sugar inside my cup
If I wake and you’re here still, give me a kiss
I wasn’t finished dreaming about your lips

[Chorus: Chris Brown]
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, don’t wake me

[Post-Chorus: Chris Brown]
Don’t wake me up, up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up, yeah
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, don’t wake me

[Verse 2: Chris Brown]
So much life in the city, you won’t believe
Been awake for some days now, no time to sleep
If your heart is a pillow, this love’s the bed
Tell me what is the music inside my head

[Chorus: Chris Brown]
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, don’t wake me

[Post-Chorus: Chris Brown]
Don’t wake me up, up, up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up, yeah
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, don’t wake me

[Bridge: Chris Brown]
I don’t wanna fall, fall, fall, fall asleep, no
I don’t wanna fall unless I’m falling for you
I don’t wanna fall, fall, fall, fall asleep, no
I don’t wanna fall unless I’m falling for you

[Chorus: Chris Brown]
Don’t wake me up, up, up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up, yeah
Don’t wake me up, up, up, up, up, up
Don’t wake me up, don’t wake me
