That Dream (Just Stays In My Mind) by Static Mafia (Flicker)

"That Dream (Just Stays In My Mind)" is a smooth, introspective R&B track off the Flicker album that captures the quiet weight of holding onto someone from afar. Set against a warm, relaxed beat with expressive vocal runs, the track paints a vivid picture of admiration, hesitation, and lingering idealization.

The narrative centers on the tension between internal longing and external reality... loving someone who feels just out of reach, making everyone else seem like a blur by comparison. It explores the dilemma of wanting to step forward with persistence versus playing it cool and keeping those feelings safe inside your head.

"I'm shooting for her heart, got my finger on the trigger...

I feel like she should know that I desire her, admire her,

Stop thinking and just let her know I have my eye on her...

Until then, that dream just stays in my mind."

Bittersweet, soulful, and deeply relatable, "That Dream (Just Stays In My Mind)" translates the hesitation of unspoken romance into an effortless, late-night groove... capturing that delicate space between fantasy and taking the leap.


That Dream (Just Stays In My Mind) - Lyrics


Yeah, yeah

Hear me out

When I dream of fairytales

I think of me and her

She's my type of right

That makes the others just a blur

I'm shooting for her heart

Got my finger on the trigger

I just hope she sees my aim

Is to get with her

Until then, until then...until then

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

I should chase this princess with persistence

Stop being low key, make her aware of my existence

I feel like she should know that I desire her, admire her

Stop thinking and just let her know I have my eye on her

Until then, until then

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

I'm shooting for her heart

Got my finger on the trigger (trigger)

Hope she sees my aim is to get with her

I feel like she should know that I desire her, admire her

Stop thinking and just let her know I have my eye on her

Eye on her

Until then, until then

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind

That dream just stays in my mind

Just stays in my mind
