SWEET DREAMS
Judy Boucher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every night I go through
Why can't forget the past
and start my life anew
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
You don't love me, it's plain
I should know
I'll never wear your ring
I...
I should hate you boy
the whole night through
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
I...
I should hate you boy
the whole night through
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
Sweet dreams of you
Things I know can't come true
Oh... Why can't I forget the past,
ans start loving someone new
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
Judy Boucher's song "Sweet Dreams" is about a woman who cannot seem to move on from a man, despite knowing that he does not love her. The lyrics portray the pain and confusion that the woman is feeling as she goes to bed every night, unable to forget the past and start anew with someone else. The woman recognizes that her feelings for this man are not reciprocated, and she knows that she will never wear his ring. However, despite this knowledge, she still cannot help but have sweet dreams about him.
The repeated line "Sweet dreams of you, every night I go through" emphasizes the woman's longing for a relationship that is not meant to be. She expresses a desire to forget the past and move on, but it seems that she is unable to break free from her attachment to this man. The song ends with a sad plea for the woman to stop having sweet dreams about him and start loving someone new, someone who will reciprocate her love.
Overall, "Sweet Dreams" is a poignant portrayal of unrequited love and the pain that can come from being unable to let go of the past. The lyrics effectively convey the woman's emotional turmoil as she struggles to move on.

Sweet dreams of you
I am constantly dreaming of you every night
Every night I go through
My dreams are filled with thoughts of you
Why can't forget the past
I am struggling to move on from what happened between us
and start my life anew
I wish I could start over and have a fresh beginning
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
But my dreams are always about you, and I can't shake them off
You...
You don't love me, it's plain
I know you never had real feelings for me
I should know
I'll never wear your ring
I understand that we will never be committed in a serious relationship
I...
I should hate you boy
I feel like I should be angry with you
the whole night through
I should hate you all the time
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
But no matter how hard I try, my dreams always come back to you
Sweet dreams of you
My mind is always consumed with thoughts of you
Things I know can't come true
I am aware that there is no possibility of us being together
Oh... Why can't I forget the past,
I wish I could move on from the hurtful things that happened between us
and start loving someone new
I would like to open my heart to someone else
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
And finally, be able to let go of these sweet but painful dreams of you
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
Instead of always dreaming of you every night
Instead of having
sweet dreams about you
Instead of being unable to move on from you
