The Wallflowers

"Sleepwalker"

maybe I could be the one they adore
that could be my reputation
it's where I'm from that makes 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 who defends my life
when I'm dead asleep, dreaming

Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine
it's the sleepwalker in me
and God only knows 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 might need someone to hold you

sleepwalker, take this knife
you may see someone tonight
you'll be the one that saves my life
when I'm dead asleep, dreaming

Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine
it's the sleepwalker in me
and God only knows that I've tried

I'm in your movie and everyone looks sad
I can hear your voice and the laugh track
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 I learn to open up my eyes
when I'm dead asleep, dreaming

Cupid, don't draw back your bow
Sam Cooke didn't know what I know
I'll never be your valentine
it's the sleepwalker in me
now, the sleepwalker in me
the sleepwalker in me
God only knows that I've tried
