Wildest Dreams
Tanner Patrick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He said let's get out of this town
Drive out of the city
Away from the crowds
I thought heaven can't help me now
Nothing lasts forever
But this is gonna take me down
He's so tall, and handsome as hell
He's so bad but he does it so well
I can see the end as it begins,
my one condition is
Say you'll remember me
Standing in a nice dress,
staring at the sunset, babe
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again
even if it's just in your wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
I said "No one has to know what we do,"
His hands are in my hair,
his clothes are in my room
And his voice is a familiar sound,
nothing lasts forever
But this is getting good now
He's so tall, and handsome as hell
He's so bad but he does it so well
And when we've had our very last kiss
My last request is
Say you'll remember me
Standing in a nice dress,
staring at the sunset, babe
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again
even if it's just in your wildest dreams
Wildest dreams
You see me in hindsight
Tangled up with you all night
Burnin' it down
Some day when you leave me
I bet these memories follow you around
You see me in hindsight
Tangled up with you all night
Burnin' it down
Some day when you leave me
I bet these memories follow you around
follow you around
Say you'll remember me
Standing in a nice dress,
staring at the sunset, babe
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again
even if it's just pretend
Say you'll remember me
Standing in a nice dress,
staring at the sunset babe
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again
even if it's just in your wildest dreams
wildest dreams
Even if it's just in your wildest dreams




In your wildest dreams
In your wildest dreams
