Fantasy
Melissa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No don't cry 'cause I'm running away
I believe in love are words too hard to say
Yes I know you could blame my mind
Let me live my time my heat is beating wild

I believe in fantasies oh baby
I don't believe in love I'm crazy
Don't want to make you cry my darling
Leave me in my deep confusion

Fantasy you'll set me free
I'm living in a wild conclusion
Melody sings to the beat
I need a romantic freedom

Fantasy across the sea
I'm sailing with no destination




Harmony speed up my heartbeat
Tonight I'll reach my dreamland

Overall Meaning

In Melissa's song "Fantasy," she addresses the confusion she feels about love and the need to escape from it. The first verse reveals that Melissa is leaving, but doesn't want her lover to feel sad because she finds it difficult to say that she believes in love. She also acknowledges that her "mind" is to blame for her departure. The phrase "heat is beating wild" can be interpreted as Melissa's heart racing with anticipation for whatever is to come next.


The chorus explains Melissa's outlook on love and life. She believes in fantasies and not love because she deems herself "crazy." She doesn't want to hurt her lover because of her confusion and therefore pleads with them to allow her the freedom to navigate her thoughts and feelings.


The second verse highlights the romanticized idea of fantasy as an escape. Melissa sings of being swept away by the melody and harmonies that speed up her heartbeat. She yearns for a romantic freedom that she feels love could never provide her.


Overall, the song encapsulates the inner turmoil that comes with uncertainty about love and the desire to escape it. Through "Fantasy," Melissa allows herself the freedom to break away and explore a world of her own creation.
