You Can't Walk in Your Sleep (If You Can't Sleep) Songtext
von The Go‐Go’s

Last night you slept
You slept in fits
You smashed your windows bit by bit
You cried out
A bad dream
Horror pictures
What a scene

Which way will things go tonight?
Toss and turn or sleep tight?
You can′t win
You wonder why
That sleep is one thing you can't buy

You can′t walk in your sleep
If you can't sleep
You can't talk in your sleep
If you can′t sleep


Downed that pill
Hours ago
Time is passing
Oh, so slow
Watch the clock
You′re waiting
Five o'clock
And the world is waking
That′s the way things went tonight
Tossed and turned though you were tight
Exhaustion brings on desperation
Well, there's still some consolation

You can′t walk in your sleep
If you can't sleep
You can′t talk in your sleep
If you can't sleep

Last night you slept
You slept in fits
You smashed your windows bit by bit
You cried out
A bad dream
Horror pictures
What a scene

Which way will things go tonight?
Toss and turn or sleep tight?
You can't win
You wonder why
That sleep is one thing you can′t buy


You can′t walk in your sleep
If you can't sleep
You can′t talk in your sleep
If you can't sleep

Can′t walk
(I can't walk)
Can′t talk
(I can't sleep)
Can't sleep
(Oh, no)
I can′t walk
(I can′t walk)
I can't talk
(I can′t sleep)
I can't sleep
(Oh, no, no, no)
