Sweet sleepwalker
We mustn't wake her
The shock would be catastrophe
Sweet sleepwalker
A poor little soldier
Her head on your shoulder
Just let her sleep
Sweet sleepwalker
Blonde like her father
Be sure to treat her gingerly
Sweet, bittersweet
Were we always and only the lonely?
Swept off our feet
Free from disease
And easy meat
She saw you forced her
Over and over
Sweet sleepwalker
We mustn't wake her
The shock would be catastrophe
Sweet sleepwalker
Now doubled over
We cut the ground beneath your feet
What's done is done
Now we're martyrs of rhythmic relation
Stumbles and sways
Turns like a phrase
And just the same
Of course you forced her
Over and over
So, don't you love me?
And, aren't you thinking of me?
And don't love lead
Lovely, down we slipped
Sweet, bittersweet
We were always and only the lonely?
Swept off our feet
Free from disease
And easy meat
Of course you forced her
Over and over
Over and over
Over and over
