A simple blues tune that sounded so familiar when written that I thought I stole the lyrics. Another tune written quickly but first penned way back in 2005. It has been such a strong part of the catalog that I still play it nearly every time I play live, which isn't enough! I think all of us have laid in bed thinking of love that got away.
lyrics
V1
How do I love you
I’m dreaming about the way
How do I love you
I’m dreaming about the way
Keep dreaming about you darling
Every night and every day
V2
Woke up this morning
Had my dream about you
Woke up this morning
Had my dream about you
Pretty plain to me darling
I got those dreamin’ blues
V3
Tried to forget you
You keep coming back each night
Tried to forget you
You keep coming back to me each night
All this dreaming about you Darling
It just ain’t put me right
V2
