I Dream Of You
Indecent Obsession Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
These minutes are long
Tonight these streets echo like
A lover's song
All through the night
I've walked on the dark side of town
Sleep is just promises
I dream of you.I dream of you.
Everything you say.
Everything you do.
Makes me dream of you.
I want to hold hands
And fill them again
With real life statues of
The soldiers of pain
And watch as they fall
The Victims of Love
I am the one on my knees
Burning the candle of love to the end
I dream of you.I dream of you.
Everything you say.
Everything you do.
Makes me dream of you.
I know you suspect my desires
Are just a flame in my heart
You think that my love will go over
The first heavy weather I see in your eyes...
Oh no....

Crying on your mother's pillow
Crying cause of something that you saw
Lie awake alone in your room
Too scared to even look behind your door
But when you're young
Your eyes are oh so sure
All you see is real, not in your mind
You know at night the candle blows
Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Something 'bout the dark
It makes us listen to our fears
Whispers in the dark
They call your name
You can't escape the dark
When light just dwindles like a flame
Paint a face on your desire
Paint a picturesque view of your heart
Take a slice of all the answers
The riddle ends where all your daydreams start
Cause if you look you'd see the whole world
Goes round it's only friend
And realize the world without a sun just
Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Something 'bout the dark
It makes us listen to our fears
Whispers in the dark
They call your name
You can't escape the dark
When light just dwindles like a flame
Love will find it's own way
Even in the dark
This time someone shut the gates
Around your heart
And lonely somehow lost the key
Some things are never meant to be
But when you're young
Your eyes are oh so sure
All you see is real, not in your mind
You know at night the candle blows
Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Something 'bout the dark
It makes us listen to our fears
Whispers in the dark
They call your name
You can't escape the dark
When light just dwindles like a flame
Whispers in the dark
Everyone hears
Whispers in the dark
They make us listen to our fears

Песня из прошлого, столько с ней связано. Как никогда ранее, оказываюсь совсем близко с тем временным отрезком . Кажется, что стоит только закрыть глаза, сделать шаг в кажущуюся, резко наступившую темноту и ты уже там, в другом временном измерении. Песни, как и запахи, способны перенести в прошлое, они —своеобразная машина времени, которая способна увезти туда, куда на обычной машине уехать невозможно.
