    gotta agree w/ atiqah02/ the "you know i dreamed about you" segment of this song is just beyond my vocabulary. this song is magic.

    Sunday morning

    There are not enough words in my lexicon to describe my feelings for this song.

    [self indulgence] My boyfriend is 29, so I like to pretend that this song is about me. [/self indulgence]

    "You know I dreamed about you for twenty-nine years before I saw you .You know I dreamed about you.I missed you for twenty-nine years." It is the most romantic thing I've ever heard

    My take on the song: This guy is at a party where they serve punch (which means this dude is at a teen party or maybe just a reception where they happen to serve punch or maybe they weren't serving punch, but the song just needed a good double entendre as in 'he's taking a punch') anyway. Obviously the guy landed himself in the dog house with the Mrs and wants to rectify by going home and put on a striptease show for her ("I wanna hurry home to you put on a slow, dumb show for you and crack you up") This guy really wants to put on a humorous yet good show, so he becomes irrational: leaning on walls that are unleanable, doubting his dick and rambles on about his legs being sparkles and pins before realizing to "better get his shit together" What this guy really wants though, is a blue ribbon on his brain, one he's dreamt of the past 29 years (maybe his life-long goal was to raise awareness of testicular cancer in UK, who's to say really) In all seriousness tho, am I way off target here?

    The feeling you get when the chorus builds up is unbelievable.

    I'm just echoing what everyone else has said, but the last section with the piano is just shivers all over.
