(Was I) In Your Dreams Lyrics
Was I in your dreams, I'd like to know.
Did I touch your hand and did it feel like snow?
Try to understand while I've got you on the phone.
Did I hurt you like I know I can?
Tell me why you'd ever wanna leave your lovin' man.
Try to understand, please try to understand.
Was I in your dreams, was I in your dreams?
This dreamer died when his dreamed died too.
But I don't really mind if I dream about you..
I can't say what any of that means.
Oh, was I in your dreams, late last night.
Did you hold pillow, did you squeeze me tight?
I just wanna make everything all right.
Was I in your dreams, was I in your dreams, was I
Did I touch your hand and did it feel like snow?
Try to understand while I've got you on the phone.
Did I hurt you like I know I can?
Tell me why you'd ever wanna leave your lovin' man.
Try to understand, please try to understand.
Was I in your dreams, was I in your dreams?
This dreamer died when his dreamed died too.
But I don't really mind if I dream about you..
I can't say what any of that means.
Oh, was I in your dreams, late last night.
Did you hold pillow, did you squeeze me tight?
I just wanna make everything all right.
Was I in your dreams, was I in your dreams, was I

I love this song because it is really about a guy wondering if she is thinking about him the way he is thinking about her...dreaming! My x sent me this album and it freaked me out because I was literally still dreaming about him! I especially like the way he says....was I? at the end.
Jeff Tweedy is a GOD!
Haven't heard this song yet but I agree with you kid. Jeff Tweedy kicks ass.
I think its about a girl who used to really love some guy and he never knew but he always felt the same and than when he does realize she feels the same way she's already moved on and he's asking if she ever dreamed of him or being with him.Lol maybe i'm being to deep but just a thought.
god this song is good
The lyrics "This dreamer died when his dreamed died too." really puts a confusing spin on the song, it vaguely suggests the songwriter's dreaming about his deceased loved one, which is a paradox if you combine it with the lyric "Try to understand while I've got you on the phone."; a clear indication she's still alive. Maybe when he talks about his dreamed that died, he means the love she once felt for him and their life together rather than the person herself.
When he lost her, a relationship with her was his dream, he just died inside. I don't think it's to be taken literally that she died. My $0.02.
