Your Best Friends
Dreams Across Miles: Love Lost in City Lights
Lyrics
I had this dream last night
I had a dream last night
From the other side of the world
It was from a distant place in the world
I was walking you home
I envisioned walking you home
We were talking again
We were having a conversation
But I still don't feel right
Despite the dream, something feels wrong
In this place
The current location doesn't feel right
If I could jump the next flight
If possible, the singer would take the next flight
I'd be headed your way
Expressing a desire to head towards you
The best time I had in this city
Recalling a positive experience in the city
I was sleeping alone here
Being alone in the city during a significant time
In the sheets of this double bed
Specifically, in a double bed's sheets
I'll be getting back into town
Planning to return to town
Just as you're moving out and
Timing coincides with your departure
I'm wondering if you've ever said anything
Questioning if you ever spoke of the singer
Have you ever said anything about me
Wondering if you mentioned anything
To your best friends?
Specifically to your best friends
It's been almost a year
Almost a year has passed, but thoughts persist
But I still think of you on the regular
Continuing to think about you regularly
I've never felt so alone, 10,000 miles from home
Feeling exceptionally lonely far from home
Dreaming about you from this foreign hemisphere
Dreaming about you from a distant place
The best time I had in this city
Recalling another positive city experience
I was sleeping alone here
Similar to line 12, being alone in the city
In the sheets of this double bed
Repeating the imagery of the double bed's sheets
I'll be getting back into town
Anticipating a return to the city
Just as you're moving out and
Timing coincides again with your departure
I'm wondering if you've ever said anything
Reiterating the question of whether you spoke of the singer
Have you ever said anything about me
Asking if anything was said about the singer
To your best friends?
Emphasizing speaking to your best friends
I've tried to sleep it off
Attempts to overcome the emotions through sleep
But it only gets worse
The attempt doesn't alleviate the emotional pain
Now I'm not really sure
Uncertainty about what to do next
What else I can do
Feeling helpless
Maybe I'm still dreaming
Considering the possibility of still dreaming
Or maybe I just don't have a clue
Expressing confusion or lack of understanding
But I've been all over the world
Despite traveling extensively, thoughts return to you
And I just keep coming back to you
Expressing a recurring connection to you
The best time I had in this city
Recalling a positive time in the city
I was sleeping alone here
Repeating the experience of sleeping alone
In the sheets of this double bed
Reiterating the imagery of the double bed's sheets
I'll be getting back into town
Planning another return to the city
Just as you're moving out and I'm thinking about
Reflecting on your departure while thinking
The best time I had in this city
Similar to line 43, recalling a positive city experience
I was sleeping alone here
Repeating the experience of sleeping alone
In the sheets of this double bed
Reiterating the imagery of the double bed's sheets
I'll be getting back into town
Planning another return to the city
Just as you're moving out and
Reflecting on your departure again
I'm wondering if you've ever said anything
Reiterating the question of whether you spoke of the singer
Have you ever said anything about me
Asking if anything was said about the singer
To your best friends?
Emphasizing speaking to your best friends
