  I heard you talking in your sleep, is there anything that I can do?

  I don't believe we've had a word all day 'bout anything at all.

  I heard you talking in the night - that's right, yes, I heard you call,

Chorus: 
 F            G      Am 
  I heard you softly whisper, 
 F          G      E 
  I reached out to hold you near me 
 Am              G          F         C 
  Then from your lips there came that secret 
 F      C               G 
  I was not supposed to know
