    And baby when you sleep, do you dream of me?
    And when you’re awake, do you think of me?
    I need to know, how do you feel?
    ‘Cause baby when I sleep, I dream of you
    And when I’m awake, that’s all I do
    Think about every detail you have
    Do you notice when I get mad, I clench my jaw?
    Do you notice when I get sad, I tend to fall?
    Over my words, I say to you
    ‘Cause I notice when you get mad, you close your eyes
    And I notice when you are sad, you let out sighs
    I need to know, are those sighs ever over me?


    Do you know how in love with you I am?
    Do you see how in love with you I am?
    Everything that you do, it makes my heart stop
    Oh, it stops

    And baby when you sleep, do you dream of me?

    Go, ahead and tell me you got all you want
    Fiver says you’re wrong
    And I suppose you’ve come down to help me
    Move things along

    And we lapped it up and we’re wise enough to know
    How it goes, forgive me honey
    But we’re wise enough to know
    How it goes, forgive me honey
    ‘Cause we know this feeling all a little too well

    Listen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
    Once we closed that difference, you’d turned up like a friend of mine
    Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
    As if one of our longshots paid off
    One of our longshots paid off

    So yeah, go, ahead and tell me something real
    Come on, how’d you feel?
    And I suppose you’ve come down to help me
    Add scenes to the reel
    To the reel

    Why we laughed it off and we’re wise enough, who knows?
    How it goes, forgive me honey
    But we’re wise enough to know
    How it goes, forgive me honey
    ‘Cause we know this feeling all a little too well

    Listen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
    Once we closed that difference, you’d turned up like a friend of mine
    Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
    As if one of our longshots paid off
    One of our longshots paid off

    And it’s by the by
    If it makes those nights fly
    We’re side by side again
    And now, we’re all careless and loved up
    You know exactly how it goes
    When you’re giving us all kind of reason
    Thought I had to go
    Follow the heart I believe in, ’cause one of us must know
    When you’re giving us all kind of reason
    Thought I had to go
    Follow the heart I believe in, ’cause in the past it’s done me good
    So good, so good, so good

    Listen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
    Once we closed that difference, you’d turn up like a friend of mine
    Every once in a while, the little things make me smile
    As if one of our longshots paid off

    Listen, the distance between us, could’ve took a while
    Once we closed that difference, you’d turned up like a friend of mine
    Every once in a while, the little things make me smile

    As if one of our longshots paid off
    One of our longshots paid off
    One of our longshots paid off

    Baby I just wanna care for you
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Baby today, show me a way to your heart
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Show me a way, show me a way to your heart

    I can sense your resistance
    I know that you’ve been hurt before
    Can you respect my persistence
    I’m ready to give so much more
    I’m here
    So wrap your arms around me

    Baby I just wanna care for you
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Baby today, show me a way to your heart
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Show me a way, show me a way to your heart

    Heart, no no
    Your heart, no no
    Your heart, no no
    Your heart, heart

    Like sand in the ocean
    Troubles washing over you
    So let go your emotion, yeah
    Open up to something new
    I’m right here
    So wrap your arms around me

    Baby I just wanna care for you
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Baby today, show me a way to your heart
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Show me a way, show me a way to your heart

    Heart, no no
    Your heart, no no
    Your heart, no no
    Your heart, heart
    Heart, no no
    Your heart, no no
    Your heart, no no
    Your heart, heart

    Baby I just wanna care for you
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Baby today, show me a way to your heart
    You know, that I just wanna care for you
    Show me a way, show me a way to your heart

    FLICKer: Dino at the Beach

    November 24, 2022 / No Comments

    Featuring LGBT short films I found around the interwebz a.k.a Youtube. Okay sucky intro, but yeah, that’s it.


    DINO AT THE BEACH, the new short film from Josh Cox, takes place during late summer off the coast of 1960’s New England. Dino just wants to catch a tan on the beach until Sebastian, a stranger, shows up on the island. The two share an amorous afternoon together, each interpreting their encounter differently when it is over.
