Wildest Dreams
Alex Robinson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Leave us alone
Come and be my own
He saved the world
God saved the child

Tell me all your fantasies
Tell me all your wildest dreams
Don't tell your friends
Don't tell your mother
But I lied when I said
Everything I ever said

Tell me all your fantasies
Tell me all your wildest dreams

So here I am now
Drunk with a vengeance
Wasting my time
Now I waste my own time

Tell me all your fantasies
Tell me all your wildest dreams

Here's to today
Here's to tomorrow
Give you my name
Its just yours to borrow





Tell me all your fantasies
Tell me all your wildest dreams

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Alex Robinson's song "Wildest Dreams" encapsulate a sense of desperation and a longing for intimacy. The singer pleads with their lover to leave everything behind and "come and be [their] own." They express how "he saved the world, [and] God saved the child," which could be interpreted as the singer feeling insignificant compared to the world's issues. They then ask their partner to reveal their innermost desires and secrets, promising to keep them safe by pleading "Don't tell your friends, don't tell your mother."


However, the chorus reveals a darker side to this seemingly romantic request. The singer admits that they lied about everything they ever said and begs their partner to tell them their wildest dreams and fantasies. This implies that they are not interested in the emotional connection with their partner, but in using their partner's secrets for their own pleasure. The final verse seems to admit that the singer has wasted their own time drinking and being reckless, but they still hold onto the hope that they can give their name to their partner to "borrow." Overall, the lyrics suggest a desire for control and an inability to have genuine intimacy.
