Kimberly Carroll Expertise I have been a huge fan of The Wallflowers from the very beginning. I have been known to annoy my friends because sometimes I just can`t shut up about them! I work in a record store so I am also knowledgeable about many other bands and artists, but The Wallflowers are my absolute favorite. I would love to answer any questions you have about them!
Question i just got the new song sleepwalker from the wallflowers` breach album...do u know the lyrics to the song? please let me know
thanks

Answer Hi Alan!
So how great is "Sleepwalker"? I taped the song off of the radio the first time I heard it and I haven't stopped playing it since. I just need it to come out on CD because I think I'm about to wear my tape out! Anyway, after listening to it as many times as I have, I believe I have mastered the lyrics. Here's what I have been singing:
Maybe I could be the one they adore
That could be my reputation
They're smiling from their lips they think I'm a whore
I'm an educated virgin
Sleepwalker don't be shy
Don't open your eyes tonight
You'll be the one that 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, the sleepwalker in me
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 may 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, the sleepwalker in me
God only knows that I've tried
I'm in your movie and everyone looks sad
And I can't hear your voice though I've tried
But you never saw my best scene
The one where I sleep
I 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, the sleepwalker in me
Now the sleepwalker in me
Now the sleepwalker in me
God only knows that I've tried
So those are what I believe the lyrics to be. With Jakob's singing style, some of the words are slurred or shortened to fit into the meter, but you should find these to be pretty accurate. If you have any other questions feel free to let me know!
