about

This is sung from the desperate point of view of someone who has recently been dumped, someone clinging to memories and resenting the newfound distance between himself and his lover.

lyrics

If you run away from me, I'll follow / If you leave today, baby tomorrow / I will be beside myself with sorrow / I will never get back what you borrowed / And live upon the hope that you will visit me in a dream. / Everybody wants to think they're different / But there are just several basic blueprints / I can hardly think of what improvements / I would do to you if I could do them / So it's only fitting that you visit me in one of my dreams. / What the hell just happened? where did we go? / Was I lost behind a cloud of sweet smoke? / Leaving me, I'm feeling like you've revoked / All the points you added to my ego. / It's pathetic praying that you visit me in a dream. / It'll take a while to find another / Woman I'll consider as a lover / 'Cause Darling you know if I had my druthers / I'd be back with you under the covers / Instead of only hoping that visit me in one of my dreams. So it seems, the only way to get to you is my dreams. Lover, isn't that obscene?
