The story

What Is I… Dreaming About?

The premise of I… Dreaming without spoilers.

Stephen Foster lyrics, arranged by Joel Heartling, accompany a solitary female voice—sometimes with a chorus—singing mournful lines. In a bare house a shadowed man stretches, picks his feet, walks, rocks in a chair, and watches two children play. Handwritten words like “dark void” and “waiting longing” appear, and speed‑ups blur a cold exterior.
