Tom Waits - Please Wake Me Up Lyrics

I put my chips on her shoulder
Running in the carnival time
She bought the things that I told her
Made her eyes sparkle and shine
Together we'll ring in the new year
I know that she'll be my queen
And if I fall asleep in your arms
Please wake me up in my dreams

Her outfit was all made of vinyl
Like nothing I've ever seen
When our divorces are final
She'll fit right into my scheme

Together we'll ring in the new year
I know that she'll be my queen
And if I fall asleep in your arms
Please wake me up in my dreams
