I saw you 'cross the crowded room, you were lookin' my way I don't believe in lady luck, or what the cards portray But I could see your shining light, and I'm in disarray
Chorus: If I'm sleeping, don't wake me up, if I'm sleeping If I'm sleeping, don't wake me up, if I'm sleeping I thought I'd better break the ice, and started moving your way I lost direction, the room got crowded, so I must have gone astray I still don't know how it happened, there's only me to blame

(solo) I don't understand it, what is happening, what is happening It's not the way we planned it, what is happening, so take it away
Chorus If I'm sleeping, don't wake me up, if I'm sleeping, leave me alone If I'm sleeping, if I'm sleeping, why don't you leave me alone...
Standin' there, a shadow in the hall I'm hopin' that it might be you, but it wasn't anyone at all I can still remember the way things were If I could only bring you back, then I wouldn't need to say a word When we made love, it felt so strong, I remember We were so much in love, where did our love go wrong Remembering the things we used to say The memories are drifting by, but the pain is here to stay And it's no illusion, I'm a lock without a key I'm only livin' half a life, without you here with me When we made love, a love that felt so strong, I still remember We were so deep in love, where did our love go wrong
(solo) I can feel every touch again, as real as it is crazy And I kiss every kiss again, so tender they amaze me I live through the end again, feeling like I'm dying And then I touch my cheek, realize I'm crying When we made love, a love so strong, and I remember We were so deep in love, so tell me, where did our love go wrong When we made love, we belong together It's those nights I'm dreaming of, they'll stay with me, they'll last forever When we made love
Valerie, ooh yeah We were laughing, and hangin' 'round some hotel bar And we were so young, and now I wonder where you are 'cause that was years ago, but how was I to know we'd part Don't wanna hear you say, you don't know me, valerie There is somethin', somethin' that you gotta know And valerie you were the first, though I never told you so You were the main event, you didn't need to steal the show I'm telling you, you don't know me Valerie - do you remember me, when we were wild and free Valerie - do you remember me - do you remember I'm recalling all the crazy things we've done
Hey but when your folks found out, they said that we were way too young That was way back when, maybe it will be again Don't wanna hear you say, you don't know me Valerie - do you remember me, when we were wild and free Valerie - do you remember me - do you remember, yeah (solo) Do you remember me - ooh yeah - when we were wild and free Valerie - do you remember me - just tell me how you feel Valerie - do you remember me, when we were wild and free Yeah, valerie - do you remember me - just tell me how you feel Do you remember me - oh valerie - when we were wild and free Valerie - do you remember me, just tell me how you feel...
I recall in '82, there was only me to talk to I was in my lonely world, and then I found someone to walk to
I remember every second of every day, but there was something not right And as day leads to night, over and over again
Well it seems so long ago, that there were two of us together But it seems that love don't last, and now it's true of us forever
If only life would go the way that you want it to Oh but the feeling inside, that I know I can't hide Is starting all over again, and baby, you know
Chorus: You got a hold on my heart, you got a hold on my heart You know it gets stronger, the longer you keep us apart You got a hold on my heart, a serious hold on my heart I try to deny it, but baby, that's the hardest part
When I look back on those days, it's just a memory forever If only life would go the way that you want it to But when I get this feelin' inside, I know I can't hide It's starting all over again
I need a long walk, with someone who knows what to do I need a long talk, I need a helping hand to pull me through I need a tall drink, with somebody who cares, I need someone here for company It's time to rethink and somehow find a way to put an end to this mystery See I don't know, the pain won't go And the hurt inside is getting so damn hard to hide So now I pay the price, I wonder how much it's gonna take I've gotta roll the dice, and try to take all this heartache But I still don't know, the pain won't go And the hurt inside is getting so damn hard to hide I gotta work it out, 'cause my heart is still racing, racing away Work it out, 'cause my heart is still breaking, hey
So now I'll take this long walk, I don't want anybody listenin' 'cause I really wanna pour it out, and all went out without ever giving in But I still don't know, the pain won't go I'm still hurting inside and it's so damn hard to hide You gotta help me work it out, 'cause my heart is still racing, racing away Work it out, 'cause my heart, my heart is breaking away I've gotta work this out, 'cause my heart is still racing away Yeah, work it out, 'cause my heart, it's so much a part of me Work it out - gotta work it out My heart is still racing - and I'm wasting away Work it out - I've gotta work it out...
