Meat Loaf - Cheatin' In Your Dreams Lyrics

You see me now as large as life
But underneath you knew all too well
The hollow shell, no spark of life
Where once upon a time there beat a heart

For you and you knew it from the start
And you went and blew it all away

And you knew how, oh you knew best
The strings to pull and buttons to press
To wind me up and make me shake
You controlling every move I made

I couldn't see through it, all the pain
And you put me through it, over and over again
Just tell me over and over and over

How could you say there was no other?
Why is it nothing's what it seems?
You told me I'm your greatest lover
Do you even know what that word means?

Your lovin' is coolin', baby who ya think you're foolin'?
'Cos when I woke up I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
When I woke up I caught you cheatin' in your dreams

Stop it, stop it, don't you say a word
I feel my hands around her neck and everything went blurred
Broken, broken, she slipped from out my hands
She lay so still and lifeless, I cried, "Baby, baby, baby"

How could you say there was no other?
Why is it nothing's what it seems?
You told me I'm your greatest lover
Do you even know what that word means?

Your lovin' is coolin', baby who ya think you're foolin'?
'Cos when I woke up I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams
Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams

It was my dumb luck, I just came unstuck
My whole world shook, I'd had about enough

When I woke up, I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams
Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams

Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams
Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams
Cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams
