Dream Girl
Anna of the North Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just in case I see your face
I'm gonna buy a drink and while I wait
I'ma eat my cake, make the same mistakes
I know that you don't think that I can be the one
But I can be your one
I may be acting crazy now, it's getting late
They took my heart away
In my dream world
I'm still your dream girl
No if, buts, or maybes
I'm still your baby
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl
Sometimes I like to get a little drunk
Just to have some fun and be no one
I kinda like the girl that I become
When I'm all alone
Since you been gone
But now I'm calling you at 3 AM
To speak to you again
I may be acting crazy now, it's way too late
You took my heart away
But I'll be okay, 'cause
In my dream world
I'm still your dream girl
No if, buts, or maybes
I'm still your baby
In my dream world
I'm still your dream girl
No if, buts, or maybes
I'm still your baby
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl (La-la-la-da-da-da-da)
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl (La-la-la-da-da-da-da)
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl (La-la-la-da-da-da-da)
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl (La-la-la-da-da-da-da)
La-la-la-da-da-da-da
The lyrics to Anna of the North's song Dream Girl tell a story of a woman who is still in love with someone who has left her. She repeatedly walks to the same place in the hopes of seeing this person. She goes to a bar, buys a drink and eats cake to pass the time, all while waiting for a glimpse of her former love. She knows that this person doesn't believe she can be the one for them, but she still can't let go. She's aware that she's acting crazy and making mistakes, but she can't help it. She's still holding on to the hope that they can rekindle their romance.
As the song progresses, she talks about how she likes to get drunk to have some fun and be no one, but she still thinks about this person even when she's alone. She calls them at 3 AM, knowing that it's too late, but wanting to speak to them again anyway. She's aware that they took her heart, but she'll be okay because, in her dream world, she's still their dream girl. She knows that there are no ifs, buts, or maybes about her feelings. She's still their baby and their dream girl, even if it's only in her dreams.
Overall, Dream Girl is a song about longing and unrequited love. It portrays a woman who can't let go of her feelings for someone who has already moved on, but still hopes for a chance to be with them again.

I'm always walking to the same old place
I keep going to the same place in case I run into you
Just in case I see your face
I hope to catch a glimpse of you
I'm gonna buy a drink and while I wait
I'll order a drink and pass time
I'ma eat my cake, make the same mistakes
I'll indulge myself even if it's self-destructive
I know that you don't think that I can be the one
I'm aware you doubt my ability to be with you
But I can be your one
I believe I can be special to you
I may be acting crazy now, it's getting late
I may be acting irrational, but it's late and I'm tired
They took my heart away
You broke my heart
But I'll be okay, 'cause
Despite the heartbreak, I'll be fine
In my dream world
In my imagination
I'm still your dream girl
I'm still the girl you desire
No if, buts, or maybes
No doubts or hesitations
I'm still your baby
I'm still the one you care about
Sometimes I like to get a little drunk
Sometimes I drink to have fun
Just to have some fun and be no one
To let loose and not worry about my identity
I kinda like the girl that I become
I enjoy the confident person I am
When I'm all alone
When I'm by myself
Since you been gone
Since you left me
But now I'm calling you at 3 AM
Now I'm calling you very late at night
To speak to you again
To talk to you once more
I may be acting crazy now, it's way too late
I may be acting insane, but it's very late
You took my heart away
You broke my heart
But I'll be okay, 'cause
I'll be okay regardless
Ooh, I'm still your dream girl
I'm still the girl you desire
La-la-la-da-da-da-da

Well done Anna on this being used in an advertisement !
You deserve so much more recognition!
My elderly father passed away aged 83 today 23.04.20 he used to see myself and my wife watching you on YouTube and say shes a bit of a stage one lol
And we'd reply yeah dad that's kinda why we like Anna !
I've been fortunate to have seen and met you twice once in London village underground and then again in Oslo ( because we couldn't get to Heaven in London ) we are now expecting our 3rd child in October / November 2020
A few days ago a rather weak dad said IT'S ANOTHER GIRL!
My wife and I already have two girls
Lucy aged 5 and Nina aged 2
( we actually dont know yet if it's a boy or indeed another girl )
We like 4 letter names LOL
So we already have a name if my late father is correct and it's a girl !
Well its gotta be hasn't it folks

I went to her show recently by myself (she's incredible live🔥🤘).
I was in the front on the left side and when she was performing this song, everybody was singing and I looked to my right, completely across the room, there was this guy that seemed also by himself and he turned his head and looked at me. We looked at each other for a few seconds and he nodded at me and I nodded back. We had this bro moment where we gave each other permission to sing the lyrics along knowing that our secret will stay safe 😂🤝. I never saw him again, he disappeared like a mythical bro spirit.

Thats one of those strangers that you meet once and if you saw them again you would instantly notice them.

Apple is really one of the best at advertising commercials and I'm pretty sure no one can deny the fact that they always come with eye catching visuals to make the consumer levitate towards buying their products and they really have mastered this. Only a couple of other companies like Google are capable of doing this to attract more buyers. It's ingenious and aesthetic at the same time.
Edit:
I forgot to say how they choose music from upcoming artists or artists which don't have that many followers to give them a traction of so many people which boosts their popularity and introduces these underrated artists to the people at the same time.
