The alley gets darker, the street lights flicker on
The car is parked right-by, I touch the hood, it's warm
A stranger walks past me, he opens the front door
Looks at me, looks through me, he doesn't know I know
Why am I having the same dream time and time again,
Wouldn't you think it's weird?
Why am I dreaming the same man over and over again,
I don't even know his name.
Darling, I'm sure we've not met and I know you've never seen me before
Darling, the details escape me each time I wake up waiting for more
Darling, just send me a name and address and I'll be right at your door
Darling, don't worry, one day maybe each of us loves someone we know
The dream ends abruptly, he opens up his eyes
The light is so narrow he barely fits inside
His sadness so heavy, he doesn't know I watch
His each and every movement, a dream-fly-on-the-wall
His sadness, so heavy
Why is he having the same dream time and time again
His a***yst thinks it's weird
Why is he dreaming the same girl time and time again
Doesn't even know my name
(why)
Must have been fooled by someone cruel
Never to touch always to move
Never to know never to see
Never as us always only as you and me
Darling, I'm sure we've not met and I know you've never seen me before
Darling, the details escape me each time I wake up waiting for more
Darling, just send me a name and address and I'll be right at your door
