Daydream
Music For Sale Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dreaming, hoping, living the life I choose
I'm seeing all the road was misleading
I wish my life worth of something, I want that's true
But now the pictures fading away

Movie seems so perfect
I live my life as an almost dream
Baby don't you see that this heart for you
But you don't even try to believe it
I pick up all the pieces and think it through
Clearly now I'm not what you want it

You live your life so perfect
I am just a scene without anything

I give you everything that you wanted
You needed, now I'm asking
Your heart for me
'Cause I don't wanna be someone else
That you see as nobody
Don't you know this love is for free
I want you for the rest of my life

I need you so it starts to kill me
'Cause being closed to you was so tempting me
I need it to be free from this pain of you
Why don't you just let me alone

Movie seems so perfect
I live my life as an almost dream

I give you everything that you wanted
You needed, now I'm asking
Your heart for me
'Cause I don't wanna be someone else
That you see as nobody
Don't you know this love is for free
I want you for the rest of my life
So need
I need you for the rest of my life

Movie seems so perfect
I live my life as an almost dream

I give you everything that you wanted
You needed, now I'm asking
Your heart for me
'Cause I don't wanna be someone else
That you see as nobody
(nobody)

I give you everything that you wanted
You needed, now I'm asking
Your heart for me
'Cause I don't wanna be someone else
That you see as nobody
(I don't wanna be with someone else)

I give you everything that you wanted
You needed, now I'm asking
Your heart for me
'Cause I don't wanna be someone else
That you see as nobody
(as nobody)
Don't you know this love is for free
I want you for the rest of my life




So need
I need you for the rest of my life
