When I go to sleep, you become my thief |
First known performance:
“This song is about a man who has the same dream every night – it’s a bad dream, it’s a haunting dream. He dreams of the woman that’s left him, but he hopes that every night this dream will come to him, because that’s all that he has left of her.” — Elvis' spoken introduction to My Thief on Sessions At West 54th.
