Walking in My Sleep

Roger Daltrey


Lookin' 'round at all the faces
I can see they're all the same
Drifting shadows on the sidewalk 
Slowly walking in the rain

The moon shines down 
She sees she knows
And I follow 
Through rain and sun

But you see, I'm walking in my sleep
And I don't know how I got here
And when I try to keep the beat, you see I'm walking in my sleep

Didn't know that I was dreaming
Sunny days come out of midnight
In the darkness of the evening 
Running softly from the light

The moon Shines down 
She sees she knows
The star the end 
The tide the flow
The night so black it looks so real
Am I awake 
Or am I dreaming still

But you see I'm walking in my sleep
And I don't know how I got here
And though I try to keep the beat, you see I'm walking in my sleep

And through this nightmare 
The dream unfolds
I'm by a window 
The night so cold
My mind my body 
My room this heat
A drain is pouring 
Into the street

But you see, I'm walking in my sleep
And I don't know how I got here
And when I try to keep the beat, you see I'm walking in my sleep
