Shake Me, Wake Me (whenit's Over) Lyrics - The Supremes

(B. Holland/L. Dozier/E. Holland, Jr.) 

All through this long and sleepless night 

I hear my neighbors talking 

Saying that out of my life into another's arms 

You'll soon be walking 

Somebody shake me, wake me when it's over 

Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming 

And wake me 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 

"He don't love her" 

They say my heart's in danger 

'Cause you're leaving me 

For the love of a stranger

Somebody shake me, wake me when it's over 

Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming 

And wake me when it's over 

Boy, you're what my heart desires 

My whole world you've inspired 

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 I am 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 had a dream before 

Somebody tell me I'm dreaming now 

Photos 

And then shake me, wake me 

Somebody when it's over 

Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming 

And wake me when it's over
