about
The original song is from the year 1983 by the Detroit rock band The Romantics. I've always loved this song. And at some point when I was singing along, I heard a very different meaning in some of the lyrics. Aki & I collaborated to make this new version.

lyrics
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
Cuz I hear it in the night
When you close your eyes and go to sleep
And it's down to the sound of a heartbeat
I can hear the things that you dream about
When you open up your heart and the truth comes out
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
Cuz I hear it in the night
I hear .... ohhhh
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
I hear ... I hear ...
Oh when you're talking in your sleep
The secrets that you keep
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
