Fantasy
Kadu Pires feat. Nadia Ali Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How do you always know what I will say?
You seem to know me in the clearest way
I want to run and hide, keep you from finding me
You shouldn't see, what is my mystery

But with the timing right
It could be paradise
To do this now
Would not be right

I was just fine, yes I was fine I thought
I didn't think that I would get so lost
To have and not to hold and to pretend I'm cold
It is a lie because I melt every time

And with the timing right
It could be paradise
To do this now
Would not be right

So stay away from me
You're better off to stay as far from lovin' me
Just stay a fantasy
In the dark, in the night and in my dreams

And with the timing right

It could be paradise
To do this now
Would not be right

So stay away from me
Stay away from me

So stay away from me
You're better off to stay as far from lovin' me
Just stay a fantasy
In the dark, in the night and in my dreams

So stay away from me
You're better off to stay as far from lovin' me
So stay a fantasy
In the dark, in the night and in my dreams

So stay away from me
You're better off to stay as far from lovin' me
Just stay a fantasy
In the dark, in the night




In the dark, in the night
And in my dreams

Line by Line Meaning

How do you always know what I will say?
You understand me so well, even my words before I speak.


You seem to know me in the clearest way
You possess a deep understanding of me.


I want to run and hide, keep you from finding me
I want to escape and conceal myself to prevent you from discovering my secrets.


You shouldn't see, what is my mystery
Please don't see the hidden parts of me that I want to keep private.


But with the timing right
However, at the proper moment


It could be paradise
We could experience heavenly, joyous moments


To do this now
To act on our feelings at this very moment


Would not be right
Wouldn't be appropriate or acceptable


I was just fine, yes I was fine I thought
I thought I was content and pleased with my current situation


I didn't think that I would get so lost
I did not anticipate feeling so bewildered and disoriented


To have and not to hold and to pretend I'm cold
To possess but not embrace and to appear emotionally unattached


It is a lie because I melt every time
My cold persona is false because I'm overcome with delight


So stay away from me
Please maintain your distance


You're better off to stay as far from lovin' me
It's best for you not to pursue a romantic relationship with me


Just stay a fantasy
Remain a perfect but unattainable dream


In the dark, in the night and in my dreams
Only exist as an imaginary notion, in the obscurity of the night and subconsciousness
