VERSE 1
There’s a place I can go to for a sweet escape.
Fast asleep in this place, I feel so wide awake.
Every dream is so real in my mind.
Though they’re just illusions, I’m inclined
To believe they’re true.
Cuz it would be ooh so fine
If they happened to me in reality.
What a sweet, sweet world to see!

VERSE 2
Last night, I had a dream
That some hot guy was stalking me.
I looked away, and then looked back.
Thought, “Did he get closer, or am I whack?”
I snuck into a café.
Hoped that he had gone away.
I looked around, he was nowhere to be found.
I was safe and sound, then suddenly,
He popped up right in front of me.
Said, “May I take your order? 
How about me to go?”

VERSE 3
I didn’t do a thing in the world
To make him want me to be his girl.
So I just can’t explain it.
But I can’t complain, it’s
Wonderful. 
Like I’ve got some magical
Power over this guy.
Because the less that I try,
The more he pleads to get with me.
And even though I divert my eyes,
He knows it’s only cuz I’m shy.
And the sweeter he talks,
And the harder he gets to deny,
The less I try.

BRIDGE
Could this happen in real life?
I’d be surprised.
But at least I can see
This recurring dream come to life
Every time I close my eyes.
I won’t move an inch,
But it will be a cinch 
To achieve my greatest highs.
Yeah, it’s all gonna happen tonight.
The less I try.
