I Sleep Much Better (in Someone Else's Bed) Songtext

von Billy Ocean

There's a little Don Juan in everyone
Who can't stop looking but that ain't wrong
Don't even try to stop a roving eye
'Cos there's a hundred pretty women to every guy

But I, I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep
I've lost my appetite
It's gotta be, you and me
We've got it right

They say a little window shopping
Don't hurt no one
I'm only looking, not touching
Just having fun

But I, I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep
I've lost my appetite
It's gotta be, you and me
We've got it right

But I'm on my own, what to do
I don't need solitude
I need someone else, that is true
And that someone else has got to be you

I sleep much better in someone else's bed
I sleep much better in someone else's bed
But if can't have you, can't have you
Don't want someone else instead
I sleep much better in someone else's bed
But I really want you, really want you
Don't want no one else instead
Isn't it strange what a man can do
If he can't have you

There's a little bit of Romeo in every guy
With a runaway mind and twinkle in his eye
Always looking out for something sweet
But you can look at the candy but you don't have to eat

But I, I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep
I've lost my appetite
It's gotta be, you and me
We've got it right

But I'm on my own, what to do
I don't need solitude
I need someone else, that is true
And that someone else has got to be you

I sleep much better in someone else's bed
I sleep much better in someone else's bed
But if can't have you, can't have you
Don't want someone else instead
I sleep much better in someone else's bed
But I really want you, really want you
Don't want no one else instead
Isn't it strange what a man can do
If he can't have you

(Spoken)
Him: Yo, sweetheart what's wrong with you

Her: What's wrong with me? Let's talk about it

Him: I told you it's just you

Her: Hmmm, I doubt it, who's Shandy?

Him: Oh well that's ...

Her: And who's Renee

Him: Well, see last week I was a the market ...

Her: Aha, and who's that other girl I saw you with today

Him: Come on, baby, these are girls I used to play with
But you're the lady I want to stay with

Her: Yeah, but hey if you think I'm gonna sit here and listen
While you run a line and fall into a trap like those other
Girls

Him: Come on, I'm sorry, I told you that, hmm gimme a kiss

Her: Don't you understand it's hard to deal with this?
You play me part time, hello then goodbye
While you run around town like some playboy, some fly guy

Him: Look, I'm a new man now, the playboy's dead.
Now how's about we both sleep better in your bed

But I'm on my own, what to do
I don't need solitude
I need someone else, that is true
And that someone else has got to be you

I sleep much better in someone else's bed
I sleep much better in someone else's bed
But if can't have you, can't have you
Don't want someone else instead
I sleep much better in someone else's bed
But I really want you, really want you
Don't want no one else instead
Isn't it strange what a man can do
If he can't have you
