[Intro: Ella Eyre]
Why you in my dreams?
[Verse 1: Ella Eyre]
Don't know much about you
But I heard about you for the longest time
And I'll see you 'round
Whenever I go out with some friends of mine
And I remember when I saw you standing in a different light, yeah
It's funny where my mind goes
When I'm in my bed at night though
[Pre-Chorus: Ella Eyre]
'Cause I push you away in real life
You ain't even close to my type
But when I'm sleepin', everything's upside down
Upside down, yeah
[Chorus: Ella Eyre, Yxng Bane]
I saw you last night in my, my dreams
It felt so beautiful, I almost believed
We were a thing and I liked it
I never looked at you like this (Oh, like this)
'Til I saw you last night in my, my dreams
Why you in my dreams?
[Post-Chorus: Ella Eyre]
(Why you in my, why you in my?)
Why you in my dreams?
(Why you in my, why you in my mind?)
[Verse 2: Yxng Bane]
Fell asleep at nine and once I closed my eyes
Girl, you were so, so mine (So mine)
Reel it in the dark, you left in morning light
But girl, it felt so right (So right)
And if it's in our minds, then we should make it live
Get on me real, real life
Love is never for ya (Yeah)
Do it all and over for ya
[Pre-Chorus: Ella Eyre, Yxng Bane]
'Cause I push you away in real life (Real life)
You ain't even close to my type (My type)
But when I'm sleepin', everything's upside down
Upside down, yeah
[Chorus: Ella Eyre & Yxng Bane, Yxng Bane]
I saw you last night in my, my dreams (In my, my dreams)
It felt so beautiful, I almost believed (Almost believed)
We were a thing and I liked it
I never looked at you like this
'Til I saw you last night in my, my dreams
Why you in my dreams?
[Post-Chorus: Ella Eyre, Ella Eyre & Yxng Bane]
(Why you in my, why you in my?)
Why you in my dreams?
(Why you in my, why you in my mind?)
[Bridge: Ella Eyre, Yxng Bane]
If I gotta fall asleep, to sleep to see ya
Then I'm gonna fall asleep, sleep to see ya
It's different in the daylight (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Miss you and I know why (Ooh)
If I gotta fall asleep, asleep to see ya
Like I fall, fall deep, deep to see ya
It's different in the daylight (Ooh)
See you in a new light
[Pre-Chorus: Ella Eyre]
'Cause I push you away in real life
You ain't even close to my type
But when I'm sleepin', everything's upside down
Upside down, yeah
[Chorus: Ella Eyre & Yxng Bane, Yxng Bane]
I saw you last night in my, my dreams (In my, my dreams)
It felt so beautiful, I almost believed (Almost believed)
We were a thing and I liked it (I liked it)
I never look at you like this (Oh, like this)
'Til I saw you last night in my, my dreams
Why you in my dreams?
[Outro: Ella Eyre, Ella Eyre & Yxng Bane]
(Why you in my, why you in my mind?)
Why you in my dreams?
(Why you in my, why you in my mind?)

Listening to “Dreams” instantly takes me back to when we first wrote it in Jamaica, it’s a feel good track about subconsciously seeing things from a new perspective. We had such fun making it. I hope it makes others feel the same way too during these weird times [due to COVID-19].
