Sleepwalker Lyrics By 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

    now 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 dreaming

    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 tried

    now 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 who saves my life
    when i’m dead asleep dreaming

    cupid don’t draw back your bow
    sam cooke didn’t know what i know
    never be your valentine
    the sleepwalker in me
    god only know that i tried

    i’m in your movie and everyone looks sad
    but i can hear your voice in the laughtrack
    but you never saw my best scene
    the one where i sleep
    i sleepwalk into your dreams

    now 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 dreaming

    now cupid don’t draw back your bow
    sam cooke didn’t know what i know
    never be your valentine
    the sleepwalker in me
    now the sleepwalker in me
    now the sleepwalker in me
    and god only knows that i’ve tried
