Maybe you could be my Maria But maybe my Maria is all you'll ever be Am I alive or is this just a vivid dream? Or am I just making up stories? If I grew wings I'd stay out of the air 'Cuz I've knocked on Heaven's door but nobody seems to be there Sleepwalker, I've been chasing you for days Its been 'round twenty two years since I've seen your face I want to dance with a question, I'm through with talking straight Sleepwalker, I want to change your name All the highway signs are painted with your name Oh, the way you love me could be just a car up in flames But as white as my knuckles get I'm pushing down, I'm flooring it And the streets howl of lost love caution underneath my wheels But these cold streets couldn't ever understand what I feel Sleepwalker, you're no dead end avenue A morphine dream from a concrete point of view I follow the chalk outline of a kiss to your castle in the air My salvation found in the tangles of your hair Oh, I've been chasing you for days Sleepwalker, are you finally awake?

Sleepwalker
Maybe you could be my Maria But maybe my Maria is all you'll ever be Am I alive or is this just a vivid dream? Or am I just making up stories? If I grew wings I'd stay out of the air 'Cuz I've knocked on Heaven's door but nobody seems to be there Sleepwalker, I've been chasing you for days Its been 'round twenty two years since I've seen your face I want to dance with a question, I'm through with talking straight Sleepwalker, I want to change your name All the highway signs are painted with your name Oh, the way you love me could be just a car up in flames But as white as my knuckles get I'm pushing down, I'm flooring it And the streets howl of lost love caution underneath my wheels But these cold streets couldn't ever understand what I feel Sleepwalker, you're no dead end avenue A morphine dream from a concrete point of view I follow the chalk outline of a kiss to your castle in the air My salvation found in the tangles of your hair Oh, I've been chasing you for days Sleepwalker, are you finally awake?
