  • What's up with my heart when it skips a beat? (Skips a beat)
    Can't feel no pavement right under my feet (under my feet)

    Up in my lonely room
    When I'm dreamin' of you
    Oh, what can I do?
    I still need you, but
    I don't want you now

    When I'm down and my hands are tied (hands are tied)
    I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line (draw the line)
    From this pain, I just can't disguise (can't disguise)
    It's gonna hurt, but I'll have to say goodbye (say goodbye)

    Up in my lonely room
    When I'm dreamin' of you
    Oh, what can I do?
    I still need you, but
    I don't want you now

    Oh yeah

    Up in my lonely room
    When I'm dreamin' of you
    Oh, what can I do?
    I still need you, but
    I don't want you now Writer/s: James Skelly

  • Mark from UkDoes anyone know the identity of the fella in the American majors uniform in yhe video dreaming of you.. I have my suspicions that it's Corals late Manager Alan Wils? Just wondering if it was.. Old friends Rip Al x
  • Ret from Bristol, United KingdomAgain a surprise no comments. Does the singer have a really bad cold on this? This song describes a familiar scene, cooped up in your room waiting for the girl, knowing she's not good for him but taking another hit anyway
