This is one of REO's best & a personal favorite of mine.
In this song, the singer seeks escape from his sad & lonely existence. So at night, he escapes into his dreamworld, where he is loved. The object of his love could be either his crush or his ex-wife/gf. The lyrics seem somewhat ambiguous in this respect, which I think is intentional. In either case, it's something I can personally relate to, because I've experienced it first-hand.
Very sad, but a truly awesome tune.
