Al Stewart - Sleepwalking lyrics

The stranger comes to town He is greeted like a prince Society declares him wise and funny Celebrities are only decorations in this place What really matters here is old money His temporary lover has amber coloured skin In a lush apartment in the city center Bankers like his company They always let him in There is no door to tell him do not enter They're following a dream Following a dream Sleepwalking A boy has become a member of a most desired club He has a fine address in these sixties If hipness could be diagrammed he would be the hub Girls follow him round like s**y pixies There's talk among the money men in Miami beach The train is leaving You don't want to miss it Whatever it is he's offering it's there within your reach So here is the ring Why don't you kiss it They're following a dream Following a dream Sleepwalking But there's a country house a world away from here Where accusations fill the room today Something has gone missing and it's absolutely clear A servent left quite suddenly He didn't ask for money He just packed up and left quietly away Back inside the nouveau world The rich are sitting down They realize it's time for some a**essments Their charasmatic friend is somehow no where to be found Along with beggered will and their investments Someone said they saw him on a plane to Salvador or Moscow Now the weather's warming The lure of easy money keeps him constantly employed It's a social service he's performing Following a dream Following a dream Sleepwalking They're following a dream Willingly it seems Sleepwalking
