Story behind the song

okay okay...this guy i was feeling at the time, but i was involved already with someone else.  the attraction was really strong and i was losing grip on everyday activities for real....this song really wrote itself...i was working with some producer friends of mine, i heard this music and the words just flowed out...even scared me a litte because it was like every thought i was having at that time just came out and placed itself on the paper...like god speaking to and thru me...it still gives me chills when i think about it and perform it...special song

Lyrics

In My Dreams

(verse 1)
I’ve seen your face few times before
But my presence you just ignore
It’s for acceptance that I strive
From someone who doesn’t know I’m alive
I never use to be like this
But there’s something in your wind that makes me persist
I feel I’ve got to make you notice me
Before this thing becomes the death  of me
It is quite serious you see
So serious there are times that I cannot speak
As if I could ever really say the words
I swear this thing is getting  too absurd
Could I have met you once before
Cause the pounding in my chest can’t be ignored
I feel you may just be the devil’s own
Same kind that left me many times alone

(b section verse 1)
ooh ooh
I am so confused
I’m fighting evil and good and I don’t know what I should do
I just need a sign
If pain or joy will be mine before I cross that line
Until that day it seems that I’ll be living in my dreams


(verse 2)
I’ve watched your moves mostly from afar
Not really knowing who you are
It’s something I just can’t explain
How butterflies come alive when I hear your name
I wonder what it is I did
That sentenced me this awful bid
I’ve got something way past attraction
And now my life is the distraction
Only evil could lure me this way
And with my heart I know she will play
I have lived under her persuasion
When we met on several occasions







(b section verse 2)
ooh ooh
I don’t really mind
because it’s safer this way
we keep it cleaner that way
I’ve got my feelings inside
I’ve got to protect my pride
ooh ooh
I am really fine
Not ready to cross that line
Until that day it seems
That I’ll be living in my dreams

living in my dreams (4x)

Now don’t feel sorry for me
For the way that I choose to be
I rather live in my dreams 
Because it’s safer it seems
this way nobody gets hurt
when that shit just don’t work
in this case I’d rather be weak
and not even speak
for the child inside me
needs her some guarantees
And maybe I’m missing out
On what love could be about
I could be running away
When what I need is to stay
But to me that means chance
On some iffy romance
And what if the bottom falls out
And I’m left standing without
The one that I had just claimed
And even taken his name
I know this all may sound strange
And maybe one day I’ll change
Until that day seems
That I’ll be living in my dreams

(vamp w/ ad lib over out 4-6 times)
don’t cry for me cause I’ll be alright
you don’t have to worry cause I will survive
