Dreams (ft Stevie Nicks) Lyrics
Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down?
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of the memory
of what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost
Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You will know
You will know
You will know
You'll know
Now here I go again, I see
The crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me that wants to
Wrap around your dreams
And have you any dreams you'd like to sell
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of the memory
of what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost
Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down?
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of the memory
of what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost
Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You will know
You will know
You will know
You'll know
The crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me that wants to
Wrap around your dreams
And have you any dreams you'd like to sell
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of the memory
of what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost
Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know

Didn't like this song in the beginning, but it totally grew on me. The video is my favorite!
Great song. My favourite, version, though is the (Dean Coleman Dirty by Design $Cash$ Vox).
Now here you go again You say you want your freedom Well who am I to keep you down? [implying that the male is bored of what they have, and is missing messing around with women.] It's only right that you should Play the way you feel it [she isn't holding him back from anything, obviously she loves him and lets him be him.] But listen carefully to the sound of your loneliness [when he splits with her, he realizes how much she really meant to him.] Like a heartbeat drives you mad In the stillness of the memory of what you had And what you lost.
the rest is self explanatory.
The song seems pretty simple on the surface... one of those 'you don't know what you've got till it's gone' kind of relationship songs.
But look deeper.
The heartbeat.... represented by the repeating pattern in the bass... "The heartbeat drives you mad in the stillness of remembering what you had and what you lost...
I think it is about having an abortion.
Only Stevie knows.
