Sleepwalker (Album Version) Lyrics

Sleepwalker

The Wallflowers

>

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 virgin

Sleepwalker, don't be shy__

Now don't open your eyes____ tonight__

You'll be the one that defends my life

While 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 tried

*************************

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 you____

Sleepwalker, take this knife

You may see someone____ tonight

You'd be the one, that saves 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 tried_____

I'm in your, mo___vie and everyone looks sad

But I can hear you, your voice, the laughtrack

But you never saw my best scene

The one where I_ sleep

Sleepwalk into your____ dreams________

**************************

Now, sleepwalker, what's my line

It's only a matter of time

Until the line, I want to open up my eyes

When I'm dead asleep dreamin'

And 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
