Sometimes an #EarWorm is a mystery; sometimes you give one to yourself by just thinking about a song. It moves in and stays, rent free. Like this one did to me just now.

The Romantics - Talking in Your Sleep

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're dreaming 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 the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep

When I hold you in my arms at night
Don't you know you're sleeping in a spotlight
And all your dreams that you keep inside
You're telling me the secrets that you just can't hide

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 the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep

When you close your eyes and you fall asleep
Everything about you is a mystery

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 the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep

The Romantics, Strictly Personal, 1981 on Nemporer

Third album from The Romantics, who originally came out of Detroit MI. Look at the new wave style here – matching pink leather suits and bolo ties.

Did not reach the same heights as their self-titled debut and “What I Like About You” but continues in that same sound. Nemperor was a label founded by Nathan Weiss in the 60s that put out Stanley Clarke, Jerry Goodman, Jan Hammer – The Romantics were one of their biggest artists.

My copy—via Vinyl Destination in Lowell MA—is an original 1981 Pitman pressing.
