Carmelle - "Wet Dream"
from Halcyon Tone vol. 1: Reflection by Halcyon Tone
about
The laid-back Minneapolis funk of Carmelle makes way for a more upbeat, frantic number reflecting the singer's obsession with young love in all its passionate, borderline exhausting vigor.
Minneapolis Funk veteran Carmelle hired a variety of local musicians in his adopted home of Lisbon to bring an uncharacteristically frantic pace to this, his biggest release as an expat. Available now for the first time in North America, Wet Dream reflects its message; that sometimes the vigor of young lust can teeter between ecstasy and too much of a good thing.

lyrics
Not a day in my life goes by
When I'm not thinking of you
Could it be
Too much caffeine
Haven't felt something like this since I was 17
Almost obscene
Like in a wet dream
Feels like our love is something on a movie screen
She's treating me
Like a piece of meat
Spending all my time creating dirty movie scenes
I can't unwind
She's lost her mind
She's gotta give it to me crazy every single time
Not a day in my life goes by
When I'm not thinking of you
Her love is free
Beneath the sheets
But I treat it like a piece of stolen property
Swept off my feet
Hung like deli meat
It's looking like this girl has really got her hooks in me
I can see you getting on the train
Feeling lonely can't wait til you're with me again
I've beat fire and I've beat rain
But I can't seem to get you off my brain
Not a day in my life goes by
When I'm not thinking of you
When I'm not thinking of you
Could it be
Too much caffeine
Haven't felt something like this since I was 17
Almost obscene
Like in a wet dream
Feels like our love is something on a movie screen
She's treating me
Like a piece of meat
Spending all my time creating dirty movie scenes
I can't unwind
She's lost her mind
She's gotta give it to me crazy every single time
Not a day in my life goes by
When I'm not thinking of you
Her love is free
Beneath the sheets
But I treat it like a piece of stolen property
Swept off my feet
Hung like deli meat
It's looking like this girl has really got her hooks in me
I can see you getting on the train
Feeling lonely can't wait til you're with me again
I've beat fire and I've beat rain
But I can't seem to get you off my brain
Not a day in my life goes by
When I'm not thinking of you
