Mary J. Blige - Sleepwalkin' lyrics

rate me

I feel numb from the waist up<br />

Eyes walk right past the world's hurt<br />

Better is what the world deserves<br />

Why's humanity just another world?<br />

<br />

Hey, you need me, I need you<br />

To give me a hand, it's never too soon<br />

We say we wanna change, we say we wanna grow<br />

But all we do is destroy, leavin' no room for love<br />

<br />

We spend all day talkin'<br />

We spend all night layin' the dream out<br />

But we never wake up to this vision of peace<br />

Between you and between me<br />

We're just sleep walkin', we're just sleep walkin'<br />

<br />

It's not a false alarm, we gotta get it up<br />

I'm tryin' to put water on your face<br />

And shine a little sunlight your way<br />

<br />

We gotta remove the covers<br />

That have made us blind<br />

We're walkin' in circles<br />

And we're runnin' out of time<br />

<br />

You need me, I need you<br />

To give me a hand, it's never too soon<br />

We say we wanna change, we say we wanna grow<br />

But all we do is destroy, leavin' no room for love<br />

<br />

We spend all day talkin'<br />

We spend all night layin' the dream out<br />

But we never wake up to this vision of peace<br />

Between you and between me<br />

We're just sleep walkin'<br />

<br />

I know you're sleepin' peaceful<br />

It's easy to change your mind<br />

I've heard your thoughts<br />

But I need your actions to save someone's life<br />

<br />

We gotta reach past the top<br />

There's more road beyond the finish<br />

And enough's never enough<br />

So give the world back it's love<br />

<br />

You need me, I need you<br />

To give me a hand, it's never too soon<br />

We say we wanna change, we say we wanna grow<br />

But all we do is destroy, leavin' no room for love<br />

<br />

We spend all day talkin'<br />

We spend all night layin' the dream out<br />

But we never wake up to this vision of peace<br />

Between you and between me<br />

We're just sleep walkin'<br />

<br />

We need it, we need it, we need it<br />

We need it, we need it, we need it<br />

We need it, we need it, we need it<br />

We need it, we need it, we need it<br />

We need it, we need it, we need it<br />

Your love, your love, your love<br />

<br />

I feel numb from the waist up<br />

Eyes walk right past the world's hurt<br />

Better is what the world deserves<br />

Why's humanity just another world?<br /><br />
