Sleep Talk
I was awakened by the words she spoke
As she lay in slumber deep
In her dreams her silence broke
Her secrets now were mine to keep
Then a name she did invoke
As she lay there fast asleep
Unloading guilt from off her yoke
Truth was all that she could reap
When morning came and she awoke
My anger then began to show
And once again her words provoked
She called me Bob, my name is Joe!
