LYRICS:
Shared some loving
Enough for two
But I can’t ignore
That I got more
Than I was giving you
And I could be wrong
But I can’t forget the magic we had all night long
And suddenly
I’ve gone a little -
Crazy!
Without her next to me
If only she could see
I never thought she’d be
Lightyears away
(Ooh) I gotta get her
Right here so I can say:
(Oooh) I’m falling
And it’s quite clear what I should do, my darling,
With these lightyears I’m feeling between me and you
No word from you
And I’m starting to fear
No message coming through
But the message is clear
Are you moving on?
Are you forgetting the magic we had all night long?
I can see
I’ve gone a little
Crazy!
If we’re talking honestly
The thought is haunting me
I never thought she’d be
Lightyears away
(Ooh) I gotta get her
Right here so I can say:
(Oooh) I’m falling
And it’s quite clear what I should do, my darling,
With these lightyears I’m feeling between me and you.
And I guess I’m more of a fool than I could see
But I guess I thought we traded more than body heat
Are you moving on?
Are you forgetting the magic we had all night long?
It’s driving me crazy
Lightyears away
(Ooh) I gotta get her
Right here so I can say:
(Oooh) I’m falling,
And it’s quite clear what I should do, my darling,
With these lightyears I’m feeling between me and you.
(Oooh) I’m falling
But you’re light years away

This is from Dream Fiend's new album, and it should be credited appropriately, and titled "Dream Fiend & September 87" not the other way around

On spotify now 😁 thanks for bringing my attention to this track! It's one of my favourites right now!

Wait till a real pandemic shows up before you stress.

[@CivilizedSavage]

You forgot because you're not confronted with it. Go outside anywhere and I guarantee you never saw people dying all over the place like you would have if it were actually a pandemic. Without people wearing masks to make it seem real and the government restricting basic rights, you never would have known anything was happening.

[@genxdude4867]

I'm glad the '80s vibes are coming back in style...Long live Gen X...

[@w1ck3dz0d1ac]

In comparison to the Weekend and Daft Punk I feel it Coming, the visual direction for Dream Fiend and Bad Dream Baby are equally matched. They did a great job.

[@nancy3158]

I completely agree -clean ocean air, pastel sunset and no COVID. This video makes me longing for the 80's.

[@jblakeinc]

This song feels like it should be playing over a bonus ending credit sequence from an epic 80’s Space Action Comedy! You know, the main character and love interest floating and kissing and looking at the galaxy, funny clips form the movie, the comedic relief character trying to gte their attention, then making funny references, that kind of thing. Would be nostaligic magic.

I’ve been listening to this a lot. I remember September 1987 very well. 13 years old. I left elementary school in a small logging town in the Rockies, and started at a huge high school in Vancouver. A popular show at the time called 21 Jump Street filmed at our school one weekend, and Johnny Depp used my locker in one of the scenes. So much was going on in my young life at the time, it was so heavy.
