lyrics

My accomplice (Wake)

Ever since we got together
you and me been through a lot together
dreaming up our secret plots together
Even when we’re not together
seems like there’s a knot that tethers me to you.

This sentiment will not expire
I’m overwhelmed by my desire.
The only thing that I require
is your commitment to conspire
with me to depose of the realm of liars, fools and thieves.

My accomplice, my accomplice,
so much for me and you to accomplish.
Coups to arrange and schemes to conceive,
wrongs to right and rogues to deceive.

Residing in the world of the strange and illicit
in every breath a plot implicit
consumed by emotions non-specific,
in everything with you complicit,
possessed by the dream that we’ll commit the perfect crime.

My accomplice, my accomplice,
so much for me and you to accomplish.
Coups to arrange and schemes to conceive,
wrongs to right and rogues to deceive.
My accomplice, my accomplice,
so much for me and you to accomplish.
Coups to arrange and schemes to conceive,
wrongs to right and rogues to deceive.

Ever since we got together
you and me been through a lot together
dreaming up our secret plots together
Even when we’re not together
seems like there’s a knot that tethers me to you.
Seems like there’s a knot that tethers me to you.
Seems like there’s a knot that tethers me to you.

about

Jim Wake & Sleepwalker image

Jim Wake & Sleepwalker Netherlands

Jim Wake and Sleepwalker, like the musical traditions in blues, rock ’n’ roll, and rhythm blues from which the band draws inspiration, is an experience defying easy description. It is music that swings, drives, bumps and grinds, moans and groans, screams and shouts, and then steps back and turns introspective, plaintive, or nostalgic. ... more
