El rhythm and blues (abreviado por sus siglas R&B) o jumping music es un género musical derivado en su origen del jazz, el gospel y el blues. El término musical fue introducido en Estados Unidos en 1949 por Jerry Wexler de la revista Billboard. Sustituyó al término conocido como "race records" (grabaciones de raza), considerado ofensivo para la posguerra mundial así como para la categoría de Billboard "Harlem Hit Parade" en junio de 1949, y principalmente era usado para identificar el género musical que más tarde se desarrollaría en forma de rock and roll.
Toni Braxton (nacida como Toni Michelle Braxton el 7 de octubre de 1967) es una cantante de Soul y R&B y actriz estadounidense. Conocida por su grave voz de contralto, Braxton ha ganado siete premios Grammy a lo largo de toda su carrera.
Braxton comenzó su carrera cómo solista en 1993, publicando su homónimo álbum debut que alcanzó el número uno en la lista Billboard 200 de los discos más vendidos en Estados Unidos. El éxito continuó con su segundo álbum Secrets el cual contiene la canción Un-Break My Heart, balada que se convirtió en todo un éxito mundial y logró posicionar a Toni Braxton cómo una estrella internacional. En total se estima que el álbum Secrets alcanza los veinte millones de copias vendidas en todo el mundo.
So you know everything about your lover
Wanna bet
My oh my
How can this be there he goes
Talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep
The affair okay
He's corrupt
What do I do, what do I say
I feel ashamed, embarrassed, fatigued
Such a petty crime of sexual indiscretion
At night when he lays down
How I wish I could not hear the sound
But I could
Oh the things that he said
My oh my
How can this be there he goes
Talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep
Adultery that's what they call it
When you're married
Tell me something
Why is it that the men are forgiven and the women aren't
I don't know maybe, maybe I should forgive him
Maybe I'm over-reacting what do you think... not!
The promises he made
Said we'll be together for always
He's such a liar
Then he calls out her name
My oh my
How can this be there he goes
Talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep
Guilty secrets
They are haunting my life
And he doesn't even know that I know
Can you hear him
The promises he makes
Said we'll be together for always
He's such a liar
Then he goes out to burn me
My oh my
How can this be there he goes
Talking in his sleep
By and by
He will connive does he know
He's talking in his sleep
