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 [bad word] 
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 movie 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 I learn to open up my eyes 
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 

Now, the sleepwalker in me 
Now, the sleepwalker in me 
And God only know that I've tried
