In My Dreams: A Serenade to Unspoken Emotions
Lyrics
Well I've felt this for a while even since September
Expressing a prolonged emotional state since September, suggesting a significant event or change.
The night I fell in love with you, you probably don't remember
Recalling a past night of falling in love, with acknowledgment that the other person may not remember.
Your eyes stared into mine we both lost sense of time
Describing an intense moment when eye contact with the other person led to losing track of time.
We knew we had to get home but we finished off our wine
Highlighting the shared experience of needing to leave but indulging in finishing a bottle of wine.
And I know I've tried too hard before
Acknowledging past attempts at love and the fear of wanting the person more if not trying hard enough.
But I'm afraid that if I don't I'll just want you more
Expressing the fear that not putting effort into love may increase desire for the person.
And so I sang your song all night long
Describing singing the other person's song throughout the night.
And I danced with you in my dreams

I sang your song all night long

And I danced with you in my dreams

Well I'm glad you were there cuz I came back that night

Smelling like a fire and something just felt right
Describing a post-experience feeling, possibly of warmth or contentment.
So I sang your song and it sounded so sweet
Revisiting the act of singing the person's song, emphasizing its sweetness.
I didn't know what to think of you did you ever think of me
Pondering the other person's thoughts and wondering if they ever thought about the singer.
Cuz I know I've tried too hard before
Acknowledging previous efforts in love, with a recurring fear of heightened desire.
But I'm afraid that if I don't I'll just want you more

And so I sang your song all night long
