Lyrics
I never get a good night’s rest
No matter how I try
I just can’t put my mind to rest
And here’s the reason why
Chorus
Somebody’s walkin’ in my dreams
That’s why I’m talkin’ in my dreams
Someone keeps buttin’ in
When I start countin’ sheep
Someone keeps cuttin’ in
And cuttin’ off my sleep
Someone whose voice I recognize
Gives out those confidential sighs
I may be crazy, but as crazy as it seems
Somebody’s walkin’ in my dreams
And it’s you, dear
It’s you who’s walkin’ in my dreams
