Lyrics
I’ve something sweet to tell you
But the secret you must keep
And remember, if it isn’t right
I am talking in my sleep
For I know I am but dreaming
When I think your love is mine
And I know they are but seeming
All the hopes that round me shine
So, remember when I tell you
What I can no longer keep
We are none of us responsible
For what we say in sleep
My pretty secret’s coming
Oh listen with your heart
And you shall hear it humming
So close, ’twill make you start
Oh shut your eyes so earnest
Or mine will wildly weep
I love you! I adore you
But, I am talking in my sleep
In my sleep
Performance
