Fantasies and Fallacies (Deader Than Me)

Fantasies and Fallacies

i look into your eyes
and you make me smile
i look into your eyes
and you make me smile

i don’t know why i need you…

i memorized your face
when i seen you smile
i memorized your face
when i seen you smile

i don’t know why i need you…
i don’t know why i need you, but i do
oh lord, i do

i don’t know why i need you,
i don’t know why i need you,
i don’t know why i need you, but i do

these summer nights are calling me
to tell you how much i want to ignore you
i don’t wanna bore you with how much i love you

when i’m sick of all these fantasies and fallacies
and ecstasies and memories won’t carry me
won’t carry me, won’t carry me, won’t carry me
and what’s it gonna be tonight
i want you in my arms so tight
i want you in my arms tonight
i want you in my arms tonight
i want you in my arms tonight
i want you in my arms at night

About

I started this song in college, and created a draft in my Korg X3 sequencer. It only slightly resembled what was to become the final version. It was about unrequited love. Later in my life, I met another woman who inspired me to dig this up and finish polishing the lyrics, write the bridge, etc. And finally, recording this inspired me to beef up my production knowledge and my recording rig.
