sigh, this remind me of people whose strong feelings freak them out so much that they prefer the fantasy version of a relationship...if it gets real then its too much for them to handle. Those lines "you are just a dream, you could have been anyone to me" say a lot to me. Though I also like it how he reverses the dream/ dreamer in the next verse..meaning we all get a bit freaked out when we have strong feelings for someone.
But as a female who has been bewildered and betrayed by guys who keep their overwhelmed feelings inside and let themselves be blown away, i would just like to say that that the hard work of love is both people staying with the intensity and being brave enough to stand in the eye of that hurricane.

I always thought "you could have been anyone to me" is more linked to the following line "before that moment you touched my lip". Meaning, he was a dreamer, looking for a dream night and a dream date, and because it was her, he fell in deeper than he intended. The dream became real, and it scares the pants off of him.
