Coming off their four-song cover EP, Talking In Your Sleep is The Civil Wars' haunting cover of the 1983 The Romantics song.
[Verse 1: John Paul White & Joy Williams]
When you close your eyes and you fall asleep
And it's down to the sound of a heartbeat
I can hear the things you're dreaming about
When you open up your heart and the truth comes out
[Pre-Chorus: John Paul White, Joy Williams & Both]
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
'Cause I hear it in the night
[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
[Verse 2: John Paul White & Joy Williams]
When I hold you in my arms at night
Don't you know that you sleep in the spotlight?
And all your dreams you keep inside
You're telling me the secrets that you just can't hide
[Pre-Chorus: John Paul White, Joy Williams & Both]
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
'Cause I hear it in the night
[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
[Outro: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
When you're talking in your sleep
When you're talking in your sleep
