Billy Joel – Sleeping With The Television On Lyrics  Share

From Billy Joel's album: Glass Houses

I^,ve been watching you waltz all night Diane
Nobody^,s found a way behind your defenses
They never notice the zap gun in your hand
Until you^,re pointing it and stunning their senses

All night long, all night long
You^,ll shoot ^,em down because you^,re waiting for somebody good to come on
All night long, all night long
But you^,ll be sleeping with the television on

You say you^,re looking for someone solid here
You can^,t be bothered with those `just for the night^, boys
Tonight unless you take some kind of chances dear
Tomorrow morning you^,ll wake up with the white noise

All night long, all night long
You^,re only standing there ^,cause somebody once did somebody wrong
All night long, all night long
But you^,ll be sleeping with the television on

Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But your attitude is "don^,t waste my time"
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But you won^,t hear a word ^,cause it just might be the same old line

This isn^,t easy for me to say Diane
I know you don^,t need anybody^,s protection
I really wish I was less of a thinking man
And more a fool who^,s not afraid of rejection

All night long, all night long
I^,ll just be standing here ^,cause I know I don^,t have the guts to come on
All night long, all night long
And I^,ll be sleeping with the television on

Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But my attitude is "boy, don^,t waste your time"
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
But I won^,t say a word ^,cause it just might be somebody else^,s same old line

All night long, all night long
We^,re only standing here ^,cause somebody might do somebody wrong
All night long, all night long
And we^,ll be sleeping with the television on
Sleeping with the television on
Sleeping with the television on
