Day 08 - A song that you know all the words to
Selena - Dreaming of You
There are plenty of songs I know all the lyrics to, so I'm taking today's challenge up a notch by posting the FIRST song I remember knowing all the lyrics too. I never had the song on cassette or CD, so instead I told everyone in the car to shut up whenever it came on the radio. ^.^
I even remember thinking of my elementary boyfriend whenever this song came on. oh young puppy love..
I saw the movie about her life on TV sometime before I came to Japan. When I first saw the movie I had no concept of how young she was when she was murdered. So tragic...but her legacy still lives on.
Reading her wiki page while searching for the lyrics I also learned that Selena Gomez is named after her.

My friend Lady Genki, who has also been following this challenge, posts the lyrics to her songs. Considering this challenge is about knowing all the words, I will too!
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I'd stay up and think of you
And I'd wish on a star
That somewhere you are thinking of me too
Cuz I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you even see me
And I wonder if you know I'm there
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what's inside?
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
But so far, all I have are dreams of you
So, I wait for the day and the courage to say
How much I love you(Yes, I do)
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me
Ahhh...I can't stop dreaming of you
Ahhh...I can't stop dreamin
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I'd stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe that you came up to me
And said, "I love you; I love you too"
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow, and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming with you endlessly...
I'd stay up and think of you
And I'd wish on a star
That somewhere you are thinking of me too
Cuz I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you even see me
And I wonder if you know I'm there
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what's inside?
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
But so far, all I have are dreams of you
So, I wait for the day and the courage to say
How much I love you(Yes, I do)
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me
Ahhh...I can't stop dreaming of you
Ahhh...I can't stop dreamin
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I'd stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe that you came up to me
And said, "I love you; I love you too"
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow, and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming with you endlessly...

I remember when Selena was trying to cross over to the American market and she came out with this song. I also recall sitting on my bed, daydreaming about love and desperately hoping to someday find someone who I could dedicate this song to. LOL I've always been a hopeless romantic. Apparently, I have to realize that spies don't get to fall in love. Le sigh.
