In My Dreams Lyrics

Cover art for In My Dreams lyrics by Eels

This entire album is themed around the absence of a relationship, the beginning of a new one, longing and jealousy.

To me this song is about dreaming of the intimacy that comes from true companionship, hence the imagery of the two of them soaring above the clouds and looking at the world together from a perspective no one else shares.

The protagonist doesn't have it, but it's 'all there' 'in his dreams'.
