Heartbreak Dream Lyrics

It's you and me
It's slow dancing to anything playing
It's us colliding
It's never finding when we should say when

I-I-I can feel it
When I look in your eyes so clearly
I-I can see that you need me
And all that we were
I-I can taste it
All the days that you've been wastin'
I-I know that you can't face them
And all that we were

In a moment
You were everything to me
In this moment
We're living in a Heartbreak Dream
We're living in a heartbreak dream

It's holding hands
It's makin' plans that we're never keeping
It's silent drivin'
It's always finding reasons to sleep in

Ah, ah, when you're near me
I'm yelling and you can't hear me
Can you feel me, and all that we were?
I-I can taste it
All the days that we've been wastin'
I know that you can't face them
And all that we were

In a moment
You were everything to me
In this moment
We're living in a heartbreak dream

In a moment
You were everything to me
In this moment
We're living in a heartbreak dream
We're living in a heartbreak dream

When you hold me, it feels like you don't know me
We are worlds apart
When you kiss me, I know you haven't missed me
You keep breaking my heart
You keep breaking my heart
You keep breaking my heart

In a moment
You were everything to me
In this moment
We're living in a heartbreak dream
We're living in a heartbreak dream

We're living in a heartbreak dream
We're living in a heartbreak dream

Heartbreak Dream

Who told Spin magazine that despite its title, this isn't a breakup song. She explained: "It's more about the kind of relationship that you probably should end but for some reason neither of you can - nobody's happy, nothing good is happening, you complain about it all the time, but you just don't end it."

She added: "A lot of my songs are like that, looking at complicated relationships rather than just being about being in love and being happy."

This song is a musical dichotomy: a lyric about pouring one's heart out over upbeat instrumentation. This was a conscious decision for Betty Who. "I didn't want to write songs that would always make you want to slit your wrists in the bathtub. I spent a lot of time writing those songs, I think those are the ones that come most naturally to me, How dark is that?" she told Radio.com . "So I have always loved the fact that I can sing music that's about [pain], but makes you dance, makes you feel good."

Who wrote this with her producer Peter Thomas in his bedroom in Los Angeles, after telling him about an ex-boyfriend of hers.
