All through this long and sleepless night I hear my neighbors talking (She don't love him) Saying that out of my life Into another's arms you'll soon be walking
Chorus: Somebody shake me, wake me when it's over Somebody tell me that I'm dreamin' And wake me when its over
They say our love ain't what it used to be And everyone knows but me I close my ears not wanting to hear But the words are loud and clear Through these walls so thin I hear my neighbors when They say "She don't love him, she don't love him" They say my heart's in danger 'Cause you're leaving me For the love of a stranger
Chorus: Somebody shake me, wake me somebody when it's over Somebody tell me that I'm dreamin' And wake me when its over
Girl you're what my heart desires My whole world you inspire I can't bear to be losing you Cause I've loved you my whole life through
(music interlude)
Restlessly I pace the floor Listening to my neighbor's criticize What a fool I am not to realize You don't want me by your side
As the tears stream down my face I can't believe I've been replaced If I've ever ever dreamed before Somebody tell me I'm dreaming now
I said shake me, wake me somebody when its over Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming And wake me when its over C'mon wake me, shake me somebody
