Am I Dreaming
T.J.M. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't mind dreaming
While I wait
Now that I'm giving, take me away
Because I don't mind dreaming
Tell me what I say
Because I don't mind dreaming while I wait
Ohh while I wait
I don't mind dreaming
While I wait
Now that I'm giving, take me away
Because I don't mind dreaming
Tell me what I say
'Cause I don't mind dreaming while I wait
Ohh while I wait
While I wait
While I wait
While I wait
While I wait
While I wait
While I wait
Mmmm that was when I couldn't get over this guy
Saying shit like, let me say it like
I don't mind dreaming, while I wait
Ah, like I'ma just dream about you and wait for you




Ugh, which is so stupid
And, its just stupid

Line by Line Meaning

I don't mind dreaming
I don't have a problem with daydreaming


While I wait
as I patiently await something


Now that I'm giving, take me away
Since I am willing to surrender, transport me somewhere else.


Because I don't mind dreaming
Because fantasizing is not a problem for me


Tell me what I've said
Remind me what I previously mentioned.


'Cause I don't mind dreaming while I wait
Since visualizing is a harmless way to pass the time as I wait.


Oh while I wait
Oh while I am waiting


Mmmm that was when I couldn't get over this guy
At the time, I was struggling to move on from a particular person.


Saying shit like, let me say it like
Expressing vulgar language, allow me to explain


Ugh, which is so stupid
Ugh, it is completely foolish


And, it's just stupid
Additionally, it is just senseless.

I remember finding this album in a used record store in the late 80s. I hadn't heard any of the songs off it before but it instantly became one of my favorites. I still play this song and "Put Yourself in My Place" regularly. Just amazing tunes.

Its amazing what treasures one finds in 2bd hand stores huh??? Probably in the future this lp will be going for hundreds of $$$.
Since music is in a great
state of emptiness (since '83). Hope we get out of this void, in this coming decade.
