Dream About Me
Moby feat. Laura Dawn Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Babe
Dream about me
Lie
On the phone to me

Tell me no truth
If it hurts bad
There's enough in my life

To make me so sad

Just dream about
Color fills our lives
Just dream about
Some one else tonight

Babe
Oh, dream about me
On the phone
You're talking quietly

I want to be yours
I want you be mine
A, red skives
For long time

So dream about us
When you're alone
Just dream about
How I will let go

Hand
Hand

Babe

Oh, dream about me
Lie
On the phone to me

Tell me no truth
If it hurts bad
There's enough in my life
To make me so sad

Just dream about
Color fills our lives
Just dream about
Some one else tonight

Just dream about
Colour fills our song
Just dream about
How I will let go

Overall Meaning

The song "Dream About Me" by Moby feat. Laura Dawn is a love song that paints a picture of two people who are deeply in love but are physically apart. The song highlighted the importance of dreaming about someone as a way of staying connected despite the distance. The lyrics urge the person on the other end of the phone to dream about the singer and focus on the good things in life rather than the sad moments. The song also has a melancholic tone, where the singer acknowledges the pain and the sadness in life but encourages the person to dream about them as it brings hope and color to their lives.

The lyrics of the song also imply that the singer wants to be with their significant other for a long time. The line "I want to be yours, I want you to be mine, A, red skives for a long time" suggests that the singer desires a lasting and committed relationship with their partner. The chorus emphasizes the importance of dreaming and how it can brighten up life, "just dream about color fills our lives, just dream about someone else tonight."

Line by Line Meaning

Babe
An endearment used to address someone

Dream about me
Imagine me in your dreams; think about me fondly

Lie
Be in a horizontal position

On the phone to me
Talking to me over the telephone

Tell me no truth
Do not share any harsh realities

If it hurts bad
If it causes you great pain

There's enough in my life
I already have sufficient problems

To make me so sad
That make me very unhappy

Just dream about
Merely envision

Color fills our lives
Hues make everything bright and interesting

Some one else tonight
Think about somebody else this evening

Oh, dream about me
Oh, please imagine me

You're talking quietly
Your voice is low

I want to be yours
I long to belong to you

I want you be mine
I desire to possess you

A, red skives
A, small, sharped blade colored red

For long time
For an extended period

So dream about us
Therefore, ponder about the two of us

When you're alone
During moments of solitude

Just dream about
Just picture

How I will let go
Imagining how I would move on

Hand
Palm

Babe
An endearment used to address someone

Color fills our song
Hues make our melody lively

GREAT SONG - Allow me to add the lyrics:
"Dream About Me"

Babe
Oh, dream about me
Lie... on the phone to me
Tell me no truth
If it is bad
There's enough in my life
To make me so sad

Just dream about
Color fills our lives
Just dream about
Someone else tonight

Babe
Oh, dream about me
On the phone
Talking quietly
I wanna be yours
Oh, won't you be mine
Against red skies
For all time

So dream about... us
When we're old
Just dream about
How I will let go

Hand...

Hand...

And babe
Oh, dream about me
Lie, on the phone to me
Tell me no truth
If it is bad
There's enough in my life
To make me so sad

Just dream about
Color fills our lives

Just dream about
Someone else tonight

Just dream about
Color fills our song

Just dream about
How I will let go

Every damn time, this song reaches the most sensitive fiber in my soul and makes me cry softly. In certain way, it is comforting and that is why I find myself coming back to this song. In its own way this song and its video is a masterpiece. Thanks for reading, I hope you all are doing fine today. And if not, the sun will rise tomorrow and it will be a new day.

For all animal lovers: I found this kitty in March 19 th of 2020 at a square near my house. She was alone and crying under that tree. I named her Lucianna (the one who brings the light). She's the sweetest little thing of my heart. So sorry I cannot add a pic. 💟🐈💟

Lo más triste del video es que al final las naves son un montón, lo que significa a que de cada una de ellas habrá un gato que sufrirá lo mismo que el protagonista... y para rematar esos acordes finales con la escena del gato viendo el cielo te acaban de destrozar el corazón 💔

This song is now less depressing than it was two or three years ago. I watch it again and see so many space ships coming to rescue the kitten. At first I despaired over his hard luck and human cruelty, but watching this again years later, I see how many beings are fighting for the purpose of saving all life on Earth.

Same. Couldn't stop the second time. Yet recommended this video for years and instantly loved Moby, who I have seen in person at animal rights protests and L.A. vegan restaurants. Today I see all the space ships though. I see the kitten victorious in the tree and the multitude of space ships coming to save him. It's weird how your perspective changes after years of being vegan. I think being vegan makes you stronger, Being a meat eater or a vegetarian makes you depressed about what you're doing, even sometimes to new vegans. After years you develop a sense of purpose, a sense of optimism - like hey, we can save them.

Most people really underestimate how tough life is for animals on the streets. Especially with cats the lazy assumption is made that they are natural super predators and can find plenty of food anywhere. But a concrete, hectic and dirty city is not loaded with wandering prey animals, and even when there are, the cat population will soon increase to levels where the food supply becomes too small anyway. They also often die from thirst or cold, they get run over by cars, get wounded or stuck in garbage trying to find food, or get hurt by other strays or callous humans. You can go and become a volunteer for your animal shelter to help neuter strays and we can petition the government to subsidize animal welfare programs more.

this song is heartbreaking for me every time because first time I heard it, it was a year ago by Vet where I was waiting with my lil dogie named Riki to know what type of cancer she has and this song was just playing... I was crying a lot... she died ten days after and every time I remeber her I watch this video and Dream about her, love you Riki and miss you so much
