Topic: "Dreaming About You"

The new year got me to reminiscing about some of the more 'interesting' women I dated way way back in my single days.  Here is a little ditty that pays homage to their allure (and my gullability).  Happy New Year!
[SONG]
{t:Dreaming About You}
{st:by, James McCormick, 1/1/2007}
{c:In 3/4 Time, a Dysfunctional Waltz of Love}

I was [C]dreaming about [Dm]you and [F]your silly [G]grin,
The [C]way that you [F]laugh when I [G]tickle your skin.
I was [C]dreaming about [Dm]you and the [F]sway of your [G]hips,
Your [C]sparkling [F]eyes and your [G]ten fingertips.
I was [F]dreaming about [C]you [F]dreaming about [C]me,
[F]Dreaming about [C]how [G]happy [G7]we'll [C]be.
. . . .
I was [C]wondering about [Dm]you and your [F]strange little [G]jokes,
The [C]way that you [F]really [G]freaked out my folks.
I was [C]wondering about [Dm]you and those [F]pills that you [G]take,
Are they [C]vitamins or [F]more for your [G]sanity's sake?
I was [F]wondering about [C]you [F]wondering about [C]me,
[F]Wondering about [C]how [G]happy [G7]we'll [C]be.
. . . .
I was [C]thinking about [Dm]you and the [F]way that you [G]sleep,
All the [C]thrashing and [F]moaning and [G]mumbling so deep.
I was [C]thinking about [Dm]you and your [F]sweet little [G]screams,
Every [C]night when you [F]have those [G]recurring dreams.
I was [F]thinking about [C]you [F]thinking about [C]me,
[F]Thinking about [C]how [G]happy [G7]we'll [C]be.
. . . .
I was [C]pondering the [Dm]night when [F]we first did [G]meet,
And the [C]way that I [F]swept you [G]right off of your feet.
I was [C]pondering [Dm]how a [F]geek such as [G]me,
Could [C]attract such a [F]tigress so [G]wild and so free.
I was [F]pondering about [C]you [F]pondering about [C]me,
[F]Pondering about [C]how [G]happy [G7]we'll [C]be.
. . . .
I was [C]dreaming about [Dm]you and our [F]first little [G]glance,
How it [C]led to a [F]fantasy [G]whirlwind romance.
I was [C]dreaming about [Dm]you and the [F]games that we [G]play,
And I'm [C]hoping these [F]marks will [G]soon start to fade.
I was [F]dreaming about [C]you [F]dreaming about [C]me,
[F]Dreaming about [C]how [G]happy [G7]we'll [C]be.

Re: "Dreaming About You"

Hi James haoppy new year to ye, hope ye had a great time.

Grreat lyrics there, unfortunatlly after 3 days solid of playing the guitar at a 4 day party my finger tips are too sore to play, even sore to type.

But tomorrow I am going to give this wee song a go, I like it.


All the best

Ken

Re: "Dreaming About You"

Thanks for the encouragement, Ken! Glad you like the song - I'm still fussing with the lyric trying to incorporate more verses honoring other women from way way back when looks was the only thing I was looking for in a woman.


Also need to weave into the fabric of the song the fact that in those days I was a little looney myself - mostly just too full of hormones to use my brain.


Hey - any party with 3 solid days of playing had to be great fun and a wonerful way to welcome the new year.  I have spent several days gutting and repairing a bathroom at our house - yuck.
