Sometimes A Fantasy Lyrics

I listened to this song for the first time in about 2 years today. I had kind of passed it off, but I forgot how much of a good tight smooth beat the verse had, especially with the snare. Musically overlooked at best.

I agree with amishgirl in the sense that they don't have much of a personal relationship but that it's all phone sex. It might even be a sex hotline he's calling, not a real person. He seems too emotionally detached especially in the first verse when he's feeling slightly guilty and he's bashing himself about the head to get some extra sympathy to whomever he's talking to.

But yeah, essentially phone sex.
