In Dreams
Sierra Ferrell Lyrics

Won't you sit down, you know I love you honey
And you look so tired
I know it's hard how we're thrown into this life

But that river will flow on
Even after we're all long gone
That river will flow on
Take me with you now before I'm one

I walk into the room and there you sit
There you sit, you so alone and quiet
I can't help but stare how I love you, and it just ain't fair

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

But that river will flow on
Even after we're all long gone
That river will flow on
Take me with you now before I'm one

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Sierra Ferrell's "In Dreams" is an emotional ballad that speaks of unrequited love and the hope that it will remain in the dreams of the one you love. The song captures the singer's yearning to be loved by someone who she holds dear to her heart. The opening lines "I hope I'm in your dreams, the way you are in all of my mind" suggests that she is deeply infatuated with this person and she desires to be with them.

As the song progresses, it becomes apparent that the person she is singing to is either unaware of her feelings or is indifferent towards her, leaving her feeling frustrated and heartbroken. She sings "I can't help but stare how I love you, and it just ain't fair," highlighting the pain and difficulty of being in love with someone who may never feel the same way.

The song takes a contemplative turn towards the end, with the lyrics "But that river will flow on, even after we're all long gone." It emphasizes the idea that life is temporary, and that all we can do is hold onto the moments we cherish the most. The song ends on a poignant note, with the singer hoping to be taken away with the one she loves before she's gone.

Overall, "In Dreams" is a raw and powerful song, depicting the complexities of love and the pain of unrequited affection.

I hope I'm in your dreams
I wish I could be on your mind even when you sleep

The way you are in all of my mine
You are always present in my thoughts and dreams

You've got a love so fine
Your love is special and unique

I wish that I could make you mine
I wish I could be with you and have your love

Won't you sit down, you know I love you honey
Please come sit with me, my love for you is strong

And you look so tired
You seem exhausted and worn out

I know it's hard how we're thrown into this life
Life can be difficult and uncertain

Then one day we must die
Death is inevitable for all of us

But that river will flow on
Life will continue even after we are no longer alive

Even after we're all long gone
Even after we have all passed away

Take me with you now before I'm one
Please take me with you before I die

I walk into the room and there you sit
As I enter the space, I see you sitting there

There you sit, you so alone and quiet
You are sitting by yourself, looking sad and quiet

I can't help but stare how I love you, and it just ain't fair
I cannot resist looking at you and feeling so much love for you, but it seems unfair that we cannot be together
