[Verse 1:]
Every night I dream of places
I've never been to
So real
It blows my mind

Can somebody tell me where
Could I find these places
And maybe spend some time?

[Hook #1:]
In time
I'll see face after face
True and untrue, yeah

All good things
Come to those who wait for them
I'm still young
But I have plenty of time

[Chorus:]
I'm so confused
About the way I feel
I'm trying with all my mind

And if you ask me why, girl
Please be patient
And I'll be through when it's time

[Verse 2:]
I like the way I feel
And I hope you do, yeah
I'm so curious
I need to know

You said I could talk to you
And you would help me
And tell me things that I should know
Oh, yeah

[Hook #2:]
As time goes on yeah (you know what?)
I'll see the world, baby
Oh, I guess sometimes
I'll have to grow up wondering
I hope I know what to do when it's time

[Repeat Chorus:]

Tevin Campbell is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter that got his career started with two big names in music—first working with Quincy Jones in 1989 on “Tomorrow (A Better You, Better Me)” from the album Back on the Block and then working with Prince on “Round and Round” from the Graffiti Bridge soundtrack in 1990.

His debut album T.E.V.I.N. was released on November 19, 1991 and features the #1 R&B hits “Tell Me What You Want Me To Do” and “Alone With You,” which helped the album go platinum and earn Tevin a Grammy nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. His next album I’m Ready was released on October 26, 1993 and featured the Babyface-produced hits “Can We Talk” and “I’m Ready.” This album went double platinum and led to three more Grammy nominations for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “Can We Talk,” Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “I’m Ready,” and Best R&B Album.

Tevin’s third album Back to the World was released on June 25, 1996 and he followed that up with the release of a self-titled album on February 23, 1999. He appeared in the Broadway musical Hairspray in 2005 and after some guest appearances on various shows throughout the years, he released the song “Safer on the Ground” in 2016.
