Well it started out just like a dream   and like a dream I knew that    what we had would have to end.   I was looking for a night time lover   (and) you were looking for a friend. {bridge} Someone to be there after all your night time lovers had gone to where they came. Someone who knew the way and help to play   your day time games.        N.C.       It’s not the same. Well I started out pretending   that I’d come to mean enough to you to make you want to change. Then I came to realise that there was just too much of you   you had to rearrange And I couldn’t bear to wait around for all your night time lovers to go to where they came and then it came to hurt too much to me to help to play your day time games        N.C.              No one’s to blame C   Well it started out just like a dream   and like a dream I knew that    what we had would have to end.   I was looking for a night time lover   (and) you were looking for a friend. I was looking for a night time lover                                     F       (and) you were looking for a friend.

La chanson évoque une relation qui a commencé sur une note poétique, pleine de promesses, mais qui finit par se heurter à la réalité. Les protagonistes cherchent des choses différentes : l’un désire une connexion plus profonde, tandis que l’autre semble être en quête d'amitiés sans engagement. Cette asymétrie entraîne des frustrations, puisque le héros réalise qu'il ne pourra jamais combler les attentes de l’autre. Le contexte semble tourner autour des désirs et des illusions que l'on peut avoir dans les relations amoureuses, où la recherche de l'intimité se heurte parfois à des personnalités qui ne se rencontrent pas vraiment. Cela fait écho à ces moments où les rêves d’amour se confrontent à la complexité des sentiments humains.
