Norwegian Wood (The Beatles cover) Lyrics

I once had a girl, or should i say, she once had me.
She showed me her room, isn't it good, Norwegian wood?
She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere,
So i looked around and i noticed there wasn't a chair.
I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine.
We talked until two and then she said, "it's time for bed".
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh.
I told her i didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And when i awoke i was alone, this bird had flown.
So i lit a fire, isn't it good, Norwegian wood.

These lyrics sound like a description of a dream. John Lennon talking to a tree describing this dream. When he woke up sad that the girl was not interested he lit up a fucking cigarette.
