its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
You've been waiting for your lover
What you'll discover
Is she's always there
Walk a while in her summer
She is the drummer
Of your beating heart
Won't you tell her that you love her
And you'll hug her
Most every day
Don't you try to push or shove her
Find another
She'll walk away
She'll walk away
She'll walk away
She's a woman in a dream
One that makes you fall in love
Though her face is never seen
She is what this love is of
Stay a while in your slumber
Tumble under
And never wake
Dream forever in your wonder
She'll never sunder
Into the day
Into the day
Into the day
She's a woman in a dream
One that makes you fall in love
Though her face is never seen
She is what this love is of
She is a woman in a dream
One that makes you feel in love
Though her face is never seen, yeah
She is what this love is of
Like a woman in a dream
One that makes you fall in love
Though her face is never seen
She is what love is made of
What you'll discover
Is she's always there
Walk a while in her summer
She is the drummer
Of your beating heart
Won't you tell her that you love her
And you'll hug her
Most every day
Don't you try to push or shove her
Find another
She'll walk away
She'll walk away
She'll walk away
She's a woman in a dream
One that makes you fall in love
Though her face is never seen
She is what this love is of
Stay a while in your slumber
Tumble under
And never wake
Dream forever in your wonder
She'll never sunder
Into the day
Into the day
Into the day
She's a woman in a dream
One that makes you fall in love
Though her face is never seen
She is what this love is of
She is a woman in a dream
One that makes you feel in love
Though her face is never seen, yeah
She is what this love is of
Like a woman in a dream
One that makes you fall in love
Though her face is never seen
She is what love is made of

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
I believe this song is about the Divine Feminine and the Jungian Anima archetype that lives inside all men and women. Our own lover is inside of each of us waiting to awaken, a faceless force, from a dream. Treat her well, and only by knowing that inner lover can one truly love another person, she is what love is made of.
