Leave It In My Dreams Lyrics
I'm falling
I'm your man
Guess I've been taking a lot from you, oh
Searching so long for the truth, oh
You hoped that girl would chase you out the door
As you think it, it's already too late
Searching for meaning in a combination of notes
Don't overthink it, don't overthink it
Tried to wake so early
Get up in the mornin', it just hurts
And I think of all those little things that you and I can do
And now I've taken too many hits
Oh, I'm breaking off with all that stuff
"Anybody else want some?" That's no good reason
I broke up with Edison, I've had enough, oh
Shy and fast times in the park
Don't overthink it
Sorry to wake so early
I get up in the mornin', it just hurts
I don't wanna hear what I can't mime
Anywhere with you could change my mind
Somebody's taking much too long
Somebody's taking much too long
Don't call me stupid
Don't call me stupid
It's my life and I can't delete it
Is that the life I lead?
All these surreal things and sudden decisions
Just wanna waste my time with you
I will leave it, oh, in my dreams
I'll never let it bother me, it's not my style
I know you want it
I know you want it
Somebody's taking much too long
Somebody's taking much too long
Don't call me stupid
Don't call me stupid
I'm your man
Searching so long for the truth, oh
You hoped that girl would chase you out the door
As you think it, it's already too late
Searching for meaning in a combination of notes
Don't overthink it, don't overthink it
Get up in the mornin', it just hurts
And I think of all those little things that you and I can do
Oh, I'm breaking off with all that stuff
"Anybody else want some?" That's no good reason
I broke up with Edison, I've had enough, oh
Shy and fast times in the park
Don't overthink it
I get up in the mornin', it just hurts
I don't wanna hear what I can't mime
Anywhere with you could change my mind
Somebody's taking much too long
Don't call me stupid
Don't call me stupid
Is that the life I lead?
All these surreal things and sudden decisions
Just wanna waste my time with you
I'll never let it bother me, it's not my style
I know you want it
I know you want it
Somebody's taking much too long
Don't call me stupid
Don't call me stupid

If you are married, like me - 40 yrs! and have children this is the kind of shit that goes through your head when they r small and maybe your relationship with your significant other is under some stress. The point of view the singer/narrator changes throughout the song. I hear children’s voices, I hear a wife, and I hear yearning for something by our song protagonist, in the lyrics, That is dependent somewhat on the confines of this relationship the main relationship, but is interested and fantasizing over other relationships, and it overlaps into the main relationship. So it is all just a big mess, but at the same time so lovely as you can tell, from listening to this great song.
How many of us have experienced feelings of passion like this, perhaps incited by unexpected dreams at night, that ignite a fantasy life, dreaming, that just careens into the drag of every day life? Infinite number. Nice of Mr. Casablanca’s to capture it so well in this song - ♥️
Gotta respect a dude who leaves it in his dreams!
