Otis Redding

Otis Ray Redding, Jr. (September 9, 1941 – December 10, 1967) was an American singer and songwriter, record producer, arranger, and talent scout. Considered one of the major figures in soul music and rhythm and blues, and one of the greatest singers in the history of popular music, his singing style influenced other soul artists of the 1960s, and he helped to craft the short-living and powerful style of R&B that formed the basis of the Stax Sound.

I've got dreams, dreams to remember
I've got dreams, dreams to remember 

Honey, I saw you there last night 
Another man's arms holding you tight 
Nobody knows what I feel inside 
All I know, I walked away and cried 

I've got dreams
Dreams to remember
Listen to me
(I've got dreams) rough dreams (dreams to remember)

I know you said he was just a friend
But I saw him kiss you again and again
These eyes of mine, they don't fool me 
Why did he hold you so tenderly? 

I've got dreams
Dreams to remember
Listen, honey
(I've got dreams) rough dreams (dreams to remember)

I still want you to stay
I still love you anyway
I don't want you to ever leave 
Girl, you just satisfy me, ooh-wee  

I know you said he was just a friend
But I saw you kiss him again and again
These eyes of mine, they don't fool me 
Why did he hold you so tenderly? 

I've got dreams
Dreams to remember
Listen to me, mama
(I've got dreams) bad dreams, rough dreams, oh (dreams to remember) 
Don't make me suffer, don't let me
(I've got dreams, dreams, dreams to remember) rough dreams, bad dreams, rough dreams
