All through this long and sleepless night
I hear my neighbors talking: She don't love him
(She don't love him)
Saying that out of my life into another's arms
You'll soon be walking

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

They say our love ain't what it used to be
And everyone knows but me
I close my ears not wanting to hear
But the words are loud and clear

Through these walls so thin
I hear my neighbors when they say: She don't love him
(She don't love him)
They say my heart's in danger
'Cause you're leaving me for the love of a stranger

Somebody shake me
Come on and wake me, somebody
When it's over (when it's over)
Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming
And wake me when it's over (when it's over)

Girl, you're what my heart desires
My whole world you inspire
I can't bear to be losing you
'Cause I've loved you my whole life through

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

As the tears stream down my face
I can't believe I've been replaced
If I ever, ever dreamed before
Somebody tell me I'm dreaming now

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