Sleepwalking (梦游) - Al Stewart (阿尔·史蒂伍德)

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 sexy 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 assessments

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
