In My Head
Dreaming of Unseen Love
Lyrics
Wasted on daydreams
Feeling wasted or consumed by daydreams
It keeps replaying in my head
Replaying thoughts persistently in the mind
It's plain to see that she don't know
Clear that the person doesn't understand the situation
She stares but don't see
Looking at the person but not truly seeing them
Not enough for her to notice
Not making a significant impact for the person to notice
Should I stay or should I go
Contemplating whether to stay or leave
She don't know
Person is unaware of the speaker's existence
My name
Despite the anonymity, the speaker's name is mentioned
But it don't matter anyway
Personal identity doesn't matter in this context
Cuz I'm not what she wants
Speaker realizes they are not the person's preference
Tonight
Acknowledging the present reality
But in my head we're dancing
Imagining a romantic scenario in the speaker's mind
Down the boulevard
Describing an idealized romantic scene, emphasizing it's imaginary
We're stumbling with fake IDs
-In and out the bars
-We can lay out and dance
-Out under the stars
-It's a crazy romance
-But it's all in my head
-In my head
Reiterating that the romantic scenario is confined to the speaker's thoughts
In my head
-It's all in my head
-It's all in my head
-You said it was nice to meet me
Recalling a polite introduction from the person
Now I got the sound of your voice on repeat
Replaying the sound of the person's voice continuously
Dreams of you when I ain't even sleeping
Thinking about the person even when not asleep
Hard to stand when you make my knees weak
Feeling physically affected by the person's presence
I can't help that I fell so hard
Expressing a strong emotional attachment
But I'm positive you didn't
Recognizing a potential lack of reciprocal feelings
You finer than that Sandlot lifeguard
Complimenting the person's attractiveness and charm
Girl you got swimming
-To be honest yeah my mind is spinning out of control
Feeling mentally overwhelmed
Cuz all these random numbers they ain't reaching your phone
Unable to establish contact with the person
But honestly I really gotta speak from the soul
Expressing genuine emotions and desires
Cuz this the greatest love story that ain't never been told
Believing in a unique, untold love story
So tell me
Asking how, where, and when to connect with the person
How can I reach you
-Where can I meet you
-When can I make you mine
-Cuz you are off the charts
Complimenting the person's exceptional qualities
Yeah you a dime plus ninety nine
-And I get it
Acknowledging potential self-awareness and uncertainty
If you ain't with it
-I know I'm trippin'
-For just wishin'
-To be with someone who is nothing but exquisite
Desiring a connection with someone extraordinary
And I'll admit it
Admitting vulnerability and emotional struggle
I'm losing my grip
Feeling that something essential is missing in other relationships
Cuz something's missing
-From all these other women
Believing the person is unique in a world of inconsistency
But I just know that you built different
-And this life so inconsistent
-Cuz you and me are non existent
-But in my head we're dancing
Reiterating the imaginary romantic scenario in the speaker's mind
Down the boulevard
-We're stumbling with fake IDs
-In and out the bars
-We can lay out and dance
-Out under the stars
-It's a crazy romance
-But it's all in my head
-In my head
-In my head
-It's all in my head
-It's all in my head
-It's all in my head
-It's all in my head
Emphasizing that the entire romantic narrative exists only in the speaker's thoughts
