Sleepwalkers Lyrics


I wear my ray-bans, driving in the car
Even on a cloudy day
She always says "Man!, who do you think you are?"
'Cause she don't see it my way
We are all sleepwalkers
We only see the things we want to see
Tunnel visions
And there's no end in sight
But after all we've been through
I know this much to be true
Though I don't think like you do
Don't you know that after all
All I really need is you
I have a game plan, but my love is in a jar
It don't come into play
She always says "Man!, no matter where we are,

You're always miles away!"
We are all sleepwalkers
We dont see nothing we don't want to see
We dream in color
We paint each other black and white
Let's take one step at a time (at a time)
Let's take each day as we find (as we find)
Give me the chance to speak my mind
Don't you know that after all
That's all I really need to cross that line
We give, the impression that all is well
Trying to live, all of the lies we tell
We cry, when there's no one near
We don't know why, there just ain't enough love
In these alien years
I wear my ray-bans, driving in the car
On a cloudy day
The wheel in one hand, the other on my heart
I'm trying to see it her way
Though we are all sleepwalkers
We only see the things we want to see
I get the feeling
Maybe there';s an end in sight

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.
