I det danske melodi grandprix 2013 fik Simone en 3. plads med sangen Stay awake. Den samme placering fik hun i 2010 med sangen How will I know. Bookmakerne havde spået Simone en 1. plads, og en lille smule skuffet var pigen fra Slagelse da også.
Lyrics - Stay Awake - Simone
Oh oh oh oh
Feels like theres something in the air tonight
And in the beat of my heart the music brought me back to life
Oh lets forget about tomorrow, oh lets forget all our troubles
Ill stay with you, right here with you, till the sky comes falling down
I dont wanna close my eyes, I dont wanna sleep tonight
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
Lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight, lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
Lets stay awake, oh
Lets stay awake, oh
So when the night turns to day we will still be awake
Oh lets forget about tomorrow, oh lets forget all our troubles
Ill stay with you, right here with you, till the sky comes falling down
I dont wanna close my eyes, I dont wanna sleep tonight
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
All my life (I dont wanna close my eyes, I dont wanna sleep tonight)
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
Lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight, lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight
So when the night turns to day we will still be awake
Lets stay awake
Lets stay awake
Feels like theres something in the air tonight
And in the beat of my heart the music brought me back to life
Oh lets forget about tomorrow, oh lets forget all our troubles
Ill stay with you, right here with you, till the sky comes falling down
I dont wanna close my eyes, I dont wanna sleep tonight
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
Lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight, lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
Lets stay awake, oh
Lets stay awake, oh
So when the night turns to day we will still be awake
Oh lets forget about tomorrow, oh lets forget all our troubles
Ill stay with you, right here with you, till the sky comes falling down
I dont wanna close my eyes, I dont wanna sleep tonight
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
All my life (I dont wanna close my eyes, I dont wanna sleep tonight)
Cause Ive been waiting, Ive been hoping for this moment all my life
Lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight, lets stay awake-wake-wake tonight
So when the night turns to day we will still be awake
Lets stay awake
Lets stay awake
