Lyrics

Wake the room!
I've been quiet long enough.
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
The clock above me lost its nerve,
Dropped an hour on the floor.
My old coat started keeping time,
So I followed out the door.
The pictures leaned out of their frames,
The lamp began to sway.
Something in this tired old room
Had something left to say.
Move the chair.
Clear the floor.
I know what these feet are for.
One more beat.
Let it through.
I've still got some living to do.
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
Let the whole place come alive.
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
I've got too much left inside.
I don't need my younger days,
I don't need what I once knew.
Turn it up.
Make some space.
I just need some room to move.
Room to move.
Room to move.
Room to move.
Room to move.
Still got room to move.
Now the books are off the shelves,
The shadows leave the wall.
A gramophone grows silver wings,
And I don't mind at all.
My knees remember every mile,
My face remembers too.
But age can count the candles,
It can't tell my feet what to do.
Move the chair.
Clear the floor.
I didn't come to watch anymore.
One more beat.
Let it through.
I've still got some living to do.
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
Let the whole place come alive.
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
I've got too much left inside.
I don't need my younger days,
I don't need what I once knew.
Turn it up.
Make some space.
I just need some room to move.
Room to move.
Room to move.
Room to move.
Room to move.
Still got room to move.
Don't hand me yesterday.
I already wore it well.
Every line here on my face
Has got a story it could tell.
I don't want the years returned.
I want this one.
Right now.
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
Let the whole place come alive.
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
There's a fire still inside.
Let the windows catch the rhythm.
Let the old walls find the groove.
I don't need my younger days.
I just need some room to move.
Room to move!
Room to move!
Room to move!
Room to move!
Still got room to move!
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
Wake the room!
I've still got room to move.
The clock can keep the time.
I'll keep the rhythm.
