Sleepwalking

Gerry Rafferty
Out on the street and the rain is fallinâ"š¬â"ž¢, I got nowhere to go
Here in my heart I can hear you callinâ"š¬â"ž¢ maybe I should come back home
I donâ"š¬â"ž¢t know what keeps us together, but I canâ"š¬â"ž¢t break the chain
I donâ"š¬â"ž¢t mind a little stormy weather, but I just canâ"š¬â"ž¢t stand the rain.
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon.
Sleep wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t come so you lie there waitinâ"š¬â"ž¢, lookinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the silvery light
Tellinâ"š¬â"ž¢ yourself thereâ"š¬â"ž¢s nothinâ"š¬â"ž¢ new, so whatever gets you through the night
Meanwhile back in the music business the beat goes on and on
I sell my soul to the company man, when thereâ"š¬â"ž¢s nothinâ"š¬â"ž¢ else to lean upon.
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon.
People come and people go, friends they disappear
Thereâ"š¬â"ž¢s only one thing that I wanna know, tell me where do we go from here
Everybodyâ"š¬â"ž¢s on the make, everybodyâ"š¬â"ž¢s tryinâ"š¬â"ž¢ to get ahead
In a world like this you just exist to feed the walkinâ"š¬â"ž¢ dead.
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon.
Lookinâ"š¬â"ž¢ out on a world gone crazy, waitinâ"š¬â"ž¢ for the fun to begin
The race is on yeah theyâ"š¬â"ž¢re gettinâ"š¬â"ž¢ ready, Jesus what a state weâ"š¬â"ž¢re in
Meanwhile down in my backyard Iâ"š¬â"ž¢m sittinâ"š¬â"ž¢ doinâ"š¬â"ž¢ solitary
Now that Iâ"š¬â"ž¢ve milked the sacred cow, I just worry â"š¬í‹Å“bout the military.
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon
Sleepwalkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, deep sleep talkinâ"š¬â"ž¢, reelinâ"š¬â"ž¢ and rockinâ"š¬â"ž¢, wailinâ"š¬â"ž¢ at the moon.
