Sleep Talking Lyrics


You gone and told me ‘bout the Hollywood Hills
The thrills and chills
The passion and the pills
Keep talking
You told me all about the men you met
The come and get
The kiss that you regret
Keep talking
You went and told me ‘bout the fame in Spain
The plain in Jane
The losing it again
Keep talking
You told me all about the sweet sunset
In love and debt
The one you can't forget

Keep talking
Now you keep talking in your sleep
You've had it rough
It went too deep
I pray the lord your soul to keep
Lyrics
I've heard enough
I'm in retreat
(You) keep talking me right out of here
Sleep talking
You went and told me bout the Italian job
The Pope and God
Spaghetti and the mob
Keep talking
And how about the little brokedown shack
The hack ‘n smack
The scratching Daddy's back
Keep talking
You gone and told me bout the Broadway hits
The diva fits
The lovers and the splits
Keep talking
You went and told me bout the Paris in the spring
And the nearly thing
And the diamond in the ring
Keep talking
I don't know what I can say
Cos I can't take it away
I don't know what I can say to you
Cos you just took it away from me
Now you keep talking in your sleep
You've had it rough
It went too deep
I pray the lord your soul to keep
I've heard enough
I'm in retreat
(You) keep talking me right out of here
Sleep talking
Fell apart in St. Tropez
That kind of gave the game away
Met the set in Martinique
Couldn't hack the chic-to-chic
New York new walk big town talk
Your perfect face was white as chalk
Trailer trash to all time smash
Now you're waiting for the burn and crash
Tragedy in harmony
You gonna bling til you're back on your knees
You gonna sing til you're back on your knees
You gonna ring when you're back on your knees
Tragedy in harmony
You gonna bling til you're back on your knees
You gonna sing til you're back on your knees
You gonna ring when you're back on your knees
Monte Carlo boom to bust
Lost the lustre lost the trust
Went to Phuket went to hell
Had to get back into your shell
LA tripped over your head
Wanted to jump but you made it instead
Trailer trash to all time smash
Now you're waiting for the burn and crash
A tragedy
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep talking
Sleep talking
Keep talking
Sleep talking
Keep talking
Keep talking
Keep talking

Internationally popular British funk-rock quartet fronted by Mark King and Mike Lindup, best known for their hits Lessons In Love, Something About You, The Sun Goes Down (Living It Up), Love Games and Hot Water. They were formed on the Isle of Wight.

Though their membership has fluctuated throughout the years, the original and perhaps best-known lineup consisted of Mark King aka "Thunderthumbs" (vocals & bass), Mike Lindup (vocals & keyboards) and brothers Boon Gould (guitar) and Phil Gould (drums). After the success of the Running in the Family album, the Gould brothers left the band, citing musical differences and nervous exhaustion. King and Lindup continued, picking up replacement artists in Gary Husband on drums and former Go West and Kate Bush guitarist Alan Murphy. Murphy sadly passed away after suffering from an AIDS related illness in October 1989. The band released their then swansong album, Forever Now, in 1994.

At the end of the 80s, Mark King was recognized as one of the best bass players in the world having pioneered the 'slap and pull' technique, treating the bass as a percussion instrument. His style and virtuosity still are hugely influential, considering he also sang while he played very difficult basslines.

Following the formal breakup of the band in the mid-90s King later performed with a new lineup under the Level 42 moniker, before he and Lindup reunited to record Retroglide in 2006.

As of 2012, King and Lindup are still touring with personnel of Pete Ray Biggin, Sean Freeman and Nathan King completing the current lineup.
