Dreams
Dreams Unveil Love's Longing
Lyrics
Sarah sits alone, curled up by the telephone
Sarah is alone, sitting by the telephone, feeling emotional.
With a bottle and a wine glass in her hand
She has a bottle and a wine glass, indicating a sense of solitude or coping.
And she cries about a time somewhere back inside her mind
She reflects on a past time when she gave all her love to one man.
When she gave all of her love to just one man
Recalling a moment when she devoted herself entirely to a specific person.
And she'd like to call him up
Sarah wishes to contact him to check on his well-being.
Just to see how he's been doing
Expressing a desire to know about the man's current state.
But she doesn't have his number anymore
Unable to contact him as she doesn't have his number anymore.
And ten years is a long time past
It's been ten years since the relationship, a considerable amount of time.
For a love she knew could never last
Reflecting on a love that was known to be temporary from the beginning.
So she falls asleep to dream of him once more
She finds solace in dreaming about him as she falls asleep.
And in her dreams, she smiles
In her dreams, she experiences happiness, smiling about the past.
They make her happy
These dreams bring joy to her, a contrast to reality.
'Cause in her dreams she's loving him again
She dreams of rekindling love with him.
In her dreams, she holds him close
In her dreams, she embraces him closely.
And he tells her she's the most
He affirms her as the most lovely girl he has seen.
Lovely girl that his eyes have ever seen
Recalling the positive moments of their past relationship.
And now this lady's only happy when she dreams
Sarah's happiness is primarily found in her dreams.
In a lonely motel room some five-hundred miles away
A man, miles away, is in a lonely motel room, likely after a performance.
He smokes a cigarette after the show
He smokes and reflects on a memory of a girl he left behind a decade ago.
And he's saddened by a memory that goes running through his mind
A sense of nostalgia and regret for leaving someone special.
Of a girl he left behind ten years ago
He has traveled and pursued fame but carries the memory of her.
And he's travelled near and far
Having gone through a journey in an attempt to become successful.
Trying hard to be a star
Struggling to achieve stardom while constantly thinking of her.
Singing songs he had written just for her
He sings songs written for her, demonstrating dedication.
And now he's close to fame, he's almost there
Close to fame but feeling incomplete without her.
But without her, he just doesn't care
Fame is unfulfilling without the woman he loves.
So he falls asleep to dream of how things were
He, too, finds comfort in dreaming about the past.
And in his dreams, he smiles
In his dreams, he experiences happiness and smiles.
They make him happy
Similar to Sarah, his dreams bring him joy and solace.
'Cause in his dreams he's loving her again
He dreams of rekindling love with the woman he left behind.
In his dreams, he holds her close
In his dreams, he holds her close, recreating past intimacy.
And he tells her she's the most
Affirming her as the most lovely girl he has seen.
Lovely girl that his eyes have ever seen
Recalling positive moments of their past relationship in dreams.
Now this man is only happy when he dreams
Both Sarah and the man find happiness primarily in their dreams.
Yes, they both are only happy when they dream
