Talking In His Sleep

Toni Braxton

---

[Intro]
So you know everything about your lover
Wanna bet

[Chorus]
My oh my
How can this be there he goes
Talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep

(talking)
The affair okay
He's corrupt
What do I do, what do I say
I feel ashamed, embarrassed, fatigued
Such a petty crime of sexual indiscretion

[Verse One]
At night when he lays down
How I wish I could not hear the sound
(But I could)
Oh the things that he said

[Chorus]
My oh my
How can this be
There he goes talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep

(talking)
Adultery that's what the call it
When you're married
Tell me something
Why is it that the men are forgiven and the women aren't
I don't know maybe, maybe I should forgive him
Maybe I'm over-reacting what do you think...not!

[Verse Two]
The promises he made
Said we'll be together for always
He's such a liar
Then he calls out her name

[Chorus]
My oh my
How can this be
There he goes talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep

music interlude

(talking)
Guilty secrets
They are haunting my life
And he doesn't even know that I know
Can you hear him

[Verse Two]
The promises he makes
Said we'll be together for always
He's such a liar
Then he goes out to burn me

[Chorus]
My oh my
How can this be
There he goes talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep
