"Sleep Walkin'" lyrics - MARY J. BLIGE

I feel numb from the waist up
Eyes walk right past the world's hurt
Better is what the world deserves
Why's humanity just another world?

Hey, you need me, I need you
To give me a hand, it's never too soon
We say we wanna change, we say we wanna grow
But all we do is destroy, leavin' no room for love

We spend all day talkin'
We spend all night layin' the dream out
But we never wake up to this vision of peace
Between you and between me
We're just sleep walkin', we're just sleep walkin'

It's not a false alarm, we gotta get it up
I'm tryin' to put water on your face
And shine a little sunlight your way

We gotta remove the covers
That have made us blind
We're walkin' in circles
And we're runnin' out of time

You need me, I need you
To give me a hand, it's never too soon
We say we wanna change, we say we wanna grow
But all we do is destroy, leavin' no room for love

We spend all day talkin'
We spend all night layin' the dream out
But we never wake up to this vision of peace
Between you and between me
We're just sleep walkin'

I know you're sleepin' peaceful
It's easy to change your mind
I've heard your thoughts
But I need your actions to save someone's life

We gotta reach past the top
There's more road beyond the finish
And enough's never enough
So give the world back it's love

You need me, I need you
To give me a hand, it's never too soon
We say we wanna change, we say we wanna grow
But all we do is destroy, leavin' no room for love

We spend all day talkin'
We spend all night layin' the dream out
But we never wake up to this vision of peace
Between you and between me
We're just sleep walkin'

We need it, we need it, we need it
We need it, we need it, we need it
We need it, we need it, we need it
We need it, we need it, we need it
We need it, we need it, we need it
Your love, your love, your love

I feel numb from the waist up
Eyes walk right past the world's hurt
Better is what the world deserves
Why's humanity just another world?
