BOYS
ROSES Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I woke up out of my mind
The moment we met I took that as A sign
You're for me and I know I'm for you
So just hold me tight so I know that it's true
1 AM lookin up at the sky
Waiting for sheep to count while hours go by
I wish you could be here conscious with me
But forever in my mind you will have to be
Cuz you makes nights worth it
Gettin over the day
Cuz when I fall asleep
Then its our time to play
Dream boyyyy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are closed
Dream Boy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are close
Dream Boy
The only time I see you's when my eyes are close
Dream Boy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are close
Plan to move to my consciousness
Where You, Liveee, Oh baby
To make a perfect fairytale life with you
But maybe
I'm shooting too far
What if I don't see you again
Broke my own heart
Cuz I know dreams always end
Cuz you makes nights worth it
Gettin over the day
Cuz when I fall asleep
Then its our time to play
Dream boyyyy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are closed
Dream Boy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are close
Dream Boy
The only time I see you's when my eyes are close
Dream Boy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are close
Dream boyyyy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are closed
Dream Boy
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are close
Dream Boy
The only time I see you's when my eyes are close




Dream Boy (Its like the only time)
It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are close

Line by Line Meaning

I woke up out of my mind
I was lost and confused until I met you


The moment we met I took that as A sign
I felt a special connection with you from the start


You're for me and I know I'm for you
I believe we are meant to be together


So just hold me tight so I know that it's true
I need your love and comfort to reassure me


1 AM lookin up at the sky
I spend my nights lost in thoughts of you


Waiting for sheep to count while hours go by
Time moves slowly when I can't be with you


I wish you could be here conscious with me
I long to have you by my side in the waking world


But forever in my mind you will have to be
Until we can be together in reality, you will remain in my thoughts


Cuz you makes nights worth it
Thinking of you makes the lonely nights bearable


Gettin over the day
Putting the struggles of the day aside to focus on thoughts of you


Cuz when I fall asleep
The only time I can truly be with you is in my dreams


Then its our time to play
In my dreams, I can finally be with you and fulfill my fantasies


Dream boyyyy
You are the one I dream of and long for


It's like the only time I see you's when my eyes are closed
In my dreams is the only time I can truly be with you


Plan to move to my consciousness
I wish to bring you into my dreamworld and escape reality with you


Where You, Liveee, Oh baby
I envision a perfect life with you in my dreams


To make a perfect fairytale life with you
I want to create the perfect love story with you, even if it's only in my dreams


But maybe
I am uncertain if my dreams will ever come true


I'm shooting too far
I may be setting my hopes too high


What if I don't see you again
I fear losing the connection I have with you, even in my dreams


Broke my own heart
My insecurities may ruin my own dreams of happiness


Cuz I know dreams always end
I am aware that eventually reality will come crashing in and I must wake up


Dream Boy (Its like the only time)
You are the boy of my dreams, and the only time I can be truly happy with you is in my dreams
