Sleepwalking Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You brought the sun, and I brought the moonlight
We were two souls in a world set to collide
You brought the wine, and I brought the flowers, mm
We'd disappear in a haze on a summer night

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll wait, I'll wait
I'm tryin' to matter
In someone else's eyes
Always, always
Nothing could matter
As much as you and I

[Chorus]
I'm sleepwalking
I dream of you sometimes
We're not talking
But do I ever cross your mind?
I don't wanna let you go
But I know, I know
Since we lost it
I'm sleepwalking

[Post-Chorus]
Woo-hoo-ooh

Get tickets as low as $37

[Verse 2]
You brought me calm, and I brought you thunder, mm
You stopped the panic when I got lost in the storm, oh
And now I feel the waves crashin' over me
It's so hard to breathe, I just need you here
So I medicate just to numb the pain
Just to see you, there's no other way

[Chorus]
I'm sleepwalking
I dream of you sometimes
We're not talking
But do I ever cross your mind?
I don't wanna let you go
But I know, I know
That since we lost it
I'm sleepwalking

[Post-Chorus]
(Woo-hoo-ooh)
I'm sleepwalking
(Woo-hoo-ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll wait, I'll wait
I'm tryin' to matter
In someone else's eyes
Always, always
Nothing could matter
As much as you and I

[Chorus]
Said I'm sleepwalking
I dream of you sometimes
When we're not talking
Do I ever cross your mind?
I don't wanna let you go
But I know, I know
That since we lost it
I'm sleepwalking
Since we lost it
I'm sleepwalking

[Post-Chorus]
Woo-hoo-ooh
I'm sleepwalking

What did James Arthur say about "Sleepwalking"?

I thought the word ‘sleepwalking’ was a cool umbrella to write a song around. I actually started the song with the pre-chorus. It made absolutely no sense at all but sounded good to me. Steven was like, ‘That’s really sick, but should we try and find some lyrics that make more sense?’ But I thought why don’t we try and build the song around that pre-chorus instead? Luckily, that sleepwalking concept really married up. I wanted to prove I still had that singer-songwriter thing that I think a lot of my fans from a long time ago like, where it was very raw.
