My Dream
Ray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Til you appear and put me in a trance
I have tried to dismember every memory, day by day
Though pieces of you hang on down the road
I can't find you in the daytime
You don't want me, honey, that's fine
But when I lay down
Stay out of my dreams
I gave you up to forces still unknown
Your light shined like angels as I tried to touch your hand
But I took you wrong for someone still unseen
I can't see you in the daytime
You don't love me, honey, that's fine
But when I lay down
Stay out of my dreams
Because I've committed no crime
And when I'm sleeping, that's on my dime
So when I lay down
Stay out of my dreams
In "My Dream," Ray explores a complex emotional landscape featuring oscillating feelings of longing, resentment, and grief. The song opens with a confession of the singer's desire for isolation - a moment of tranquility outside of the turmoil of the world. However, this respite is short-lived as the singer describes the entrance of a person - a former lover or someone who has caused them pain - who intrudes on their peace, putting them in a trance. The singer then laments their unsuccessful attempts to erase memories of this person, although remnants of them still exist, haunting the singer as they move forward.
The chorus of the song serves as a plea for this person to stay out of the singer's dreams - a realm where they cannot control their thoughts or emotions. The second verse of the song delves deeper into the singer's history with this person, revealing that they made a "grave mistake" when they "gave [them] up to forces still unknown." This line suggests that the relationship was ended prematurely and possibly because of external circumstances, not because of a lack of feelings or connection between the people involved. The image of the person appearing as if they were "shining like angels" makes it clear that this person still holds a great amount of importance to the singer but also demonstrates that they are out of reach. The singer concludes by emphasizing their innocence and right to their own mind and dreams, which this person should not invade.

For a minute, I am peaceful and I think I am alone
I feel solitude and peace for a brief moment until you come and put me in a trance.
I have tried to dismember every memory, day by day
Every day, I try to forget every memory of you.
Though pieces of you hang on down the road
Although some memories of you still linger in my mind.
I can't find you in the daytime
I cannot see you in real life during the day.
You don't want me, honey, that's fine
You don't love me, and that's okay.

However, when I go to sleep,
Stay out of my dreams
Don't appear in my dreams.

I did not do anything wrong.
And when I'm sleeping, that's on my dime
It's my time and my choice to sleep, including who I dream about.
So when I lay down
Therefore, when I go to sleep,
Stay out of my dreams
Please do not enter my dreams.
