Shake Me, Wake Me (When It’s Over)

Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, Eddie Holland, Holland-Dozier-Holland

All through this long and sleepless night
I hear my neighbors talking
Sayin' out of my life
Into another’s arms
He'll soon be walking

Somebody shake me, wake me, somebody
When it's over
Somebody tell me that I’m dreaming
And wake me, when it's over

Oh, they say your love ain't what it used to be
And everyone knows but me
I close my ears not wanting to hear
The words are loud and clear

Through these walls so thin
I hear my neighbors when
They said "He don't love her" (He don't love her)

They say my heart's in danger
'Cause you're leaving me
For the love of a stranger

Somebody shake me, wake me, somebody
When it’s over
Somebody tell me that I’m dreaming
And wake me, when it's over

Oh boy, you were my heart’s desire
My whole world you inspire
I can't bear to losing you
'Cause I've loved you my whole life through

Restlessly, I pace the floor
Listenin’ to my neighbors criticize
What a fool I am not to realize
You don't want me by your side

And the tears stream down my face
I can't believe I've been replaced
I can't bear to losing you
'Cause I've loved you my whole life through

Somebody shake me, wake me, somebody
When it's over
Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming
And wake me, when it's over

Somebody shake me, wake me, somebody
When it's over
Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming
And wake me, when it's over
