A cover of The Beatles classic from the recording session for Chris McCarthy's debut Sonder, out May 12th on Red Piano Records. 

When I wake up in the morning 
Lift my head 
I'm still yawning 
When I'm in the middle of a dream 
Stay in bed 
Float upstream 

Please don't wake me no don't shake me 
Leave me where I am 
I'm only sleeping 

Please don't spoil my day I'm miles away 
And after all I'm only sleeping 

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy 
I don't mind I think they're crazy 
Running everywhere at such a speed 
Till they find there's no need 

Please don't spoil my day I'm miles away 
And after all I'm only sleeping 

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window 
Taking my time 
Lying there and staring at the ceiling 
Waiting for a sleepy feeling 

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window 
Taking my time when I wake up early in the morning 
Lift my head I'm still yawning 

When I'm in the middle of a dream 
Stay in bed float upstream 

Please don't wake me no don't shake me 
Leave me where I am 
I'm only sleeping
