Sleepin' With Her & Dreamin' of You (Duet)

SLEEPIN' WITH HER & DREAMIN' OF YOU began as an idea nearly 30 years ago. Then it disappeared into the drawer. The title stayed. The feeling stayed. The song just waited. Years later, it came back to life. The story is real: trying to move on after a lost love, finding somebody new, and realizing that being with another person does not necessarily mean your heart has followed. The new relationship may be good. The person may be kind, beautiful, and everything they are supposed to be. But they are not you. That is the whole ache of the song: Sleepin' with her — and dreamin' of you.

Just when I got used To sleepin' by myself Along came Somebody new It wasn't something I wanted to do But I been Sleepin' with her & dreamin' of you I tried and tried To keep our love alive But you always Ran somewhere to hide She could be as pretty And just as smart But it's not you Without your heart I been Sleepin' with her & dreamin' of you Dreamin' of you I been Sleepin' with her & dreamin' of you Dreamin' of you
