Shake Me, Wake Me (When It's Over) |
All through this long and sleepless night |
I hear my neighbors talking (She don’t love him) |
Saying that out of my life |
Into another’s arms you’ll soon be walking |
Chorus: |
Somebody shake me, wake me when it’s over |
Somebody tell me that I’m dreamin' |
And wake me when its over |
They say our love ain’t what it used to be And everyone knows but me I close my ears not wanting to hear |
But the words are loud and clear |
Through these walls so thin |
I hear my neighbors when |
They say «She don’t love him, she don’t love him» |
They say my heart’s in danger |
'Cause you’re leaving me For the love of a stranger |
Chorus: |
Somebody shake me, wake me somebody when it’s over |
Somebody tell me that I’m dreamin' |
And wake me when its over |
Girl you’re what my heart desires |
My whole world you inspire |
I can’t bear to be losing you |
Cause I’ve loved you my whole life through |
(music interlude) |
Restlessly I pace the floor |
Listening to my neighbor’s criticize |
What a fool I am not to realize |
You don’t want me by your side |
As the tears stream down my face |
I can’t believe I’ve been replaced |
If I’ve ever ever dreamed before |
Somebody tell me I’m dreaming now |
I said shake me, wake me somebody when its over |
Somebody tell me that I’m dreaming |
And wake me when its over |
C’mon wake me, shake me somebody |
