Story Behind The Song
I met this really sweet guy at age 12 on a trip one time who I couldn't stop thinking about. But logically, I probably wouldn't see him again. Therefore, this ballad is about my loneliness over him. It all started coming out when my dad and I were jamming with my keyboard and his acoustic guitar.

Lyrics
It can be hard not to cry over you on occasion
Through days and nights my mind is driven into persuasion
That a blessed day will come
When we meet each other again, one on one
CHORUS:
In the back of your mind,
In your dreams do you find that I haunt you?
Cuz I still want you
When I fall asleep, my visions are filled with you
I wake up only to discover they weren't real
Missing you gets me high on sweet little things we've said or done
I'm hanging on a weak string of faith
And I don't want to wait
CHORUS REPEAT:
In the back of your mind
In your dreams, do you find that I haunt you?
Oh, I still want you
Cuz in the back of my mind
In my daydreams I find that you haunt me
Do you still want me?
No, I don't want to wait
