IF YOU TALK IN YOUR SLEEP
(Red West / Johnny Christopher)
Elvis Presley - 1973
Little Milton - 1975
I know you're a lonely woman and I love you
But someone else is waiting and he owns you
If he should ever wake up
Be sure your story is straight, love
If you talk in your sleep
Don't mention my name
And if you walk in your sleep
Forget where you came
Walkin' every night here in the shadows
So afraid that sometime he may follow
There's always the chance he'll find us
Though I don't need to remind you
If you talk in your sleep
Don't mention my name (Don't mention my name, ooh)
If you walk in your sleep
Forget where you came (Forget where you came, yeah)
(Don't mention my name)
Love is so much sweeter, when it's borrowed
But I'll feel a little easier tomorrow
Don't give our secret away
Be careful what you say
If you talk in your sleep
Don't mention my name (Don't mention my name, ooh)
If you walk in your sleep
Forget where you came (Forget where you came, yeah)
Forget where you came now (Don't mention my name)
Forget where you came (Don't mention my name)
Don't mention my name (Don't mention my name)
Don't mention my name (Don't mention my name)
Forget where you came (Don't mention my name)
(Don't mention my name)
(Don't mention my name) .......... FADE
