Tonight I met the girl of my dreams
She lay there laughing and I was so embarrassed
Tonight I met the girl of my dreams
Impossible dreams sometimes come true
Tonight I met the girl of my dreams |
Peter Cross is the songwriter, the lead singer and he also sings all the harmony tracks, plus he's the arranger and the producer.
Commentary:
The chorus melody came from a song originally written by Tor Pinney. It was so catchy that it got stuck
in my mind and the inspiration for this song came from a friend from the Second Chance divorce group who was fixated on
finding the girl of his dreams. Every time he and I went out to bars together, he would say "Peter, I can just feel it,
tonight I'm going to meet the girl of my dreams!" He said it one too many times and the connection in my mind went zap!
I thought to myself, this is really what every man is looking for, isn't it? A best friend who is also a best lover - that's
the kind of girl you marry. There are 14 vocal harmony tracks altogether (not including the lead vocal). This is a bit of a
vocal extravaganza for one singer, and this is where the many Peter Crosses singing together got humorously named "The
Crossants" (by me).
