Wide Awake by Ginnel Macalla published on 2021-08-23T17:02:52Z First line: 'I slept through a hurricane', is true. Posting now from New York, as Henri sails past and the city is bathed in tropical rain... and it's also where I first recorded the piano part, so it seems appropriate. A friend (who I am also visiting tonight) once told me how he preferred songs that were written on piano to those on guitar. Since 100% of my songs on Soundcloud are guitar based, he inspired me to switch for this one. Serendipity. WIDE AWAKE i slept through a hurricane i didn't feel the driving rain i slumbered under thunder storms i never heard those beating drums but i won’t sleep tonight I’m wide awake no i won’t sleep tonight i’m wide awake and wide awake is all i wanted… sleepwalking in the park through the daylight into the dark looking alive but falling apart lost my way when I lost my heart so i can’t sleep with you I’m wide awake no i can’t sleep with you i’m wide awake and wide awake is all i wanted… you found me in this restless state took me through that open gate now every touch is what it seems and all the world’s a fading dream ‘now i will sleep tonight like i never slept now i will sleep tonight like i never slept before now i will sleep with you like i never have, now I will sleep with you… like i never slept like i never slept before… Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter Comment by Mr Cagey The old Joanna sound lovely. Your fab voice sounds equally at home with guitar or piano. Wonderful song. 2021-11-03T08:45:51Z Comment by 𝕾𝖔𝖏𝖚𝖊 𝕾𝖙𝖗𝖆𝖉𝖆𝖈 Hasta ahora este track es mi favorito :)! 2021-09-04T00:20:31Z Comment by larya Perfect combo of instruments for folk, even the voice fits.
