Breaking Dawn: Book One – Chapter 5
The sun, hot on the bare skin of my back, woke me in the morning. Late morning, maybe afternoon, I wasn’t sure. Everything besides the time was clear, though; I knew exactly where I was—the bright room with the big white bed, brilliant sunlight streaming through the open doors. The clouds of netting would soften the shine.
I didn’t open my eyes. I was too happy to change anything, no matter how small. The only sounds were the waves outside, our breathing, my heartbeat...

Sometimes I wake up
And I'm falling asleep
I think that maybe the curtains
Are closing on me
But I wake up
Yes I wake up and smile

Sometimes I feel
The chance is surprising
Surprisingly good
To be moving around
So I wake up
Yes I wake up smiling

So what?
I feel fine
I'm okay, I've seen the lighter side of life
I'm alright, I feel good
So I'll go and I'll try to start moving

Sometimes I wake up
And I'm falling asleep
But I've got to get going
So much that I'm wanting to do
But I wake up smiling

And this could be my last chance
Of saving my human sense
And this could be my last chance
No more keeping my feet on the ground

Sometimes I feel
The chance is surprising
Surprisingly good
To be moving around
And I move
I wake up smiling

So what? I feel fine
I feel okay, I've seen the lighter side of life
I'm alright, I feel good
So I'll go, well it's time to start moving on

And this could be my last chance
Of saving my human sense
And this could be my last chance
No more keeping my feet on the ground

I'm not gonna keep on
I'm not gonna keep on moving
I'm not gonna keep on
I'm not gonna keep on moving
