Sleeper

Some women are full of pep, with a knowing look in every step

They could run a marathon, queens of fitness a real paragon

None I found fit the way I roll, trying to keep up inflicted quite a toll

I was made for a slower speed, not trying to be a stallion I’m an older steed

No longer aiming for the sky, content to watch the stars go by

If you’re looking for something deeper, I’m your guy, baby I’m a sleeper

May not run with the in-crowd, but I’ll do my level best to make you proud

Worth a fortune but available for much cheaper, I’m your guy, baby I’m a sleeper

So many years passed with me longing to be, that cool guy, something better to see

Found that by creating that illusion, it just led to increasingly more confusion

Not about strutting with something to behold, ‘bout having a lover to share life as we get old

Share the bad times, laugh about the good ones, snuggle up under a blanket watching reruns

No longer aiming for the sky, content to watch the stars go by

If you’re looking for something deeper, I’m your guy, baby I’m a sleeper

May not run with the in-crowd, but I’ll do my level best to make you proud

Worth a fortune but available for much cheaper, I’m your guy, baby I’m a sleeper

I’ll sleep with you till my days are done, hold you all night, kiss you under the sun

Walk by your side through what lies in store, give you every bit of my love and then a little more

I’ll sleep by your side anywhere we go, the feeling of spooning with you is the greatest one I know

Waking to your smile starts the day off right, paradise on earth enriched sleeping beside you every night

No longer aiming for the sky, content to watch the stars go by

If you’re looking for something deeper, I’m your guy, baby I’m a sleeper

May not run with the in-crowd, but I’ll do my level best to make you proud

Worth a fortune but available for much cheaper, I’m your guy, baby I’m a sleeper

Yeah mama I’m your sleeper
