When I Dream At Night Lyrics
I have been in love
and been alone
I have traveled over many miles
to find a home
there's that little place
inside of me
that I never thought could
take control of everything
but now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does
[Chorus:]
'Cause I only feel alive
when I dream at night
even though she's not real
it's all right
'cause I only feel alive
when I dream at night
every move that she makes
holds my eyes
and I fall for her every time
I've so many things I want to say
I'll be ready when
the perfect moment
comes my way
I had never known
what's right for me
'til the night
she opened up my heart
and set it free
But now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does
[Repeat Chorus]
Now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does
[Repeat Chorus]
and been alone
I have traveled over many miles
to find a home
there's that little place
inside of me
that I never thought could
take control of everything
but now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does
when I dream at night
even though she's not real
it's all right
'cause I only feel alive
when I dream at night
every move that she makes
holds my eyes
and I fall for her every time
I'll be ready when
the perfect moment
comes my way
I had never known
what's right for me
'til the night
she opened up my heart
and set it free
But now I just spend all my time
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does
with anyone
who makes me feel
the way she does
OH MY GOD!!! This is such a beautiful song.... It's sad.. cause the guy can't get the woman he wants because she is imaginary :o((((. Mua Bye
I believe the song is about how we all have an image in our mind of the perfect partner, and how that same image makes us chase after different partners in search of a match to that perfect image in our mind leaving us deeply unsatisfied and lost.. And regardless of whether we settle down for someone, we would still love that image secretly "in our dreams" and not reveal it to anyone. A grand illusion that never becomes a reality.
