I know, I know, I haven’t done this a while, but today, I would like to share with you all one of my favorite Latin singer, Selena. The song below was released after the death of the singer.

For Helen Vahdati theme post today is “sleep“. It’s one of those times when before you go to sleep, your mind takes you back to the events of the day. However, most times, it will take you back down memory lane of a love you hold true to your heart until you meet with them again.

In this particular video, the girl wasn’t laying down preparing to go to sleep. She was in her bedroom thinking of her love until he came along to swooped her up. It’s a beautiful song.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too

[Chorus]
‘Cause 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
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me

[Verse 2]
Wonder if you ever see me (see me)
And I wonder if you know I’m there (am I there? Am I?)
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!

[Chorus]
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
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me

[Bridge]
(Corazón)
I can’t stop dreaming of you
(No puedo dejar de pensar en ti)
I can’t stop dreaming
(Cómo te necesito)
I can’t stop dreaming of you
(Mi amor, cómo te extraño)

[Verse 3]
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I 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!

[Chorus 3]
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
Than here in my room dreaming with you endlessly
With you tonight
And there’s nowhere in the world where I’d rather be
Than here in my room, I’ll be dreaming
With you tonight
