Dreamin' About U

If the wind blew every petal from your precious red rose
Would you be afraid of what you'd find inside?

When I'm alone in my room
I can't stop dreaming about you, dreaming about you
When I'm alone in my room
I can't stop dreaming about you, dreaming about you
And every time I do what I need to do
I can't stop dreaming about you, dreaming about you

Revolving around every word that is spoken
Like the planets around the sun
I want you
Your tongue is a great persuader
Yeah, you got me sold
And when I'm alone in my room just watching a rose
I dream about you, I dream about you

When I'm alone in my room, yeah
I can't stop dreaming about you
When I'm alone in my room, baby, baby
I can't stop dreaming about you, dreaming about you
And every time I do what I need to do
I can't stop dreaming about you, dreaming about you

When my sane twin reigns
Claiming your aim is to maim my subconscious into being with you
I dream about you
Betting on the notion that if my lustier twin prevails
Like the ruins of Rome, I'll lie helpless at your feet
Yeah, when I'm alone
I dream about you, I dream about you

I dream about you, baby
When I'm alone in my room
I dream about you, my baby
I dream about you, you, you

(And here we stand)
And here we stand amidst your core (you)
Like the petals on this rose I adore (you)
The inside (The inside)
If the inside is kind
Kind in a sense that one would come from all
And the wish that you wish will come true if you call
But if not, (you will fall) you will fall
And I'll still be alone (Just dreaming about you)
With this ball in my stomach just dreaming about you (Dreaming about you)
