Lyrics
I had a dream about you
But it was not really you
It was a different more random version of you
She dressed just like you
And seemed to know what to do
But when I looked in her eyes she was anything but true
Though I thought she was cute
Like I think you are too
I knew it just wouldn't last
I tried to make some conversation
But it went nowhere fast
It was a dream and it was a blur
But one thing’s for sure l like you better than her
You’re not the girl of my dreams
And let's keep it that way
Don’t be the girl of my dreams in the morning
I want her to go away
And you to stay
She was nervous and noisy
Repeated things twice
She had opinions that weren’t really nice
She said ‘whatever’ a lot
It wasn’t all that hot
It was hard for me even
To be at her place
She had redecorated in really bad taste
Every room was royal blue
You woulda hated it too
It was a dream and it was a blur
But one thing’s for sure l like you better than her
You’re not the girl of my dreams
And let's keep it that way
Don’t be the girl of my dreams in the morning
I want her to go away
And you to stay
