Sleepwalker Lyrics


Maybe I could be the one they adore
That could be my reputation
It's where I'm from that lets them think I'm a whore
I'm an educated virginAnd sleepwalker, don't be shy
And don't open your eyes tonight
You'll be the one that defends my life
When I'm dead asleep dreamin'Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine, the sleepwalker in me
And God only know that I've triedNow let me in, let me drown or learn how to swim
Just don't leave me at the window
I could be the one to be your next best friend
You may need someone to hold youAnd sleepwalker, take this knife
Now you may see someone tonight
You'd be the one that saves my life
When I'm dead asleep dreamin'Now Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine, the sleepwalker in me

And God only know that I've triedI'm in your movie and everyone looks sad
But I can hear you, your voice, the laugh track
But you never saw my best scene
The one where I sleep, I sleepwalk into your dreamsNow, sleepwalker, what's my line
Now it's only a matter of time
Until I learn to open up my eyes
When I'm dead asleep dreamin'Now Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine, the sleepwalker in me
Now, the sleepwalker in me
Now, the sleepwalker in me
And God only know that I've tried

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
