make you banana pancakes pretend like it's the weekend now

I've only shared this with one person. About 3 years ago, I had my "Banana Pancakes" dream. Imagine Jack Johnson's song entitled Banana Pancakes playing in the background. The setup in my dream was that it was rainy Saturday morning, with me on my comfy bed, PREGNANT, and my husband gently rubbing my big tummy. We were having a very sweet, tender moment--anticipating the arrival of our little one. Cheezy, I know. I've never forgotten that dream because I didn't dream about it once. I've dreamed about it several times. The first time I had the Banana Pancakes dream, the guy in it was the first person who I told the dream to--him (haha!). If you've been reading my blog for a while now, you'd know who I'm referring to ;) The past three years, this dream has recurred more than 5 times. Weird. After him, the recurring Banana Pancake dreams still had a guy in it but I could never really see his face.

It would be a weird yet lovely thing if my "Banana Pancakes" dream did happen. I hope it does :)




Banana Pancakes
by Jack Johnson

Can't you see that it's just raining
Ain't no need to go outside...
But baby, you hardly even notice
When I try to show you this
Song is meant to keep ya
From doing what you're supposed to
Like waking up too early
Maybe we can sleep in
I'll make you banana pancakes
Pretend like it's the weekend now

And we could pretend it all the time
Can't you see that it's just raining
Ain't no need to go outside

But just maybe, laka ukulele
Mommy made a baby
Really don't mind the breakfast
'cause you're my little lady
Lady lady love me
'cause I love to lay here lazy
We could close the curtains
Pretend like there's no world outside

And we could pretend it all the time
Can't you see that it's just raining
Ain't no need to go outside
Ain't no need ain't no need Mmmm MMmmm
Can't you see can't you see
Rain all day
And I don't mind.

The telephone is singing
Ringing it's too early
Don't pick it up
We don't need to we got everything
We need right here
And everything we need is enough
Just so easy
When the whole world fits inside of your arms
Don't really need to pay attention to the alarm
Wake up slow, yeah wake up slow
You hardly even notice
When I try to show you this
Song is meant to keep ya
From doing what your supposed to
Like waking up too early
Maybe we can sleep in
I'll make you banana pancakes
Pretend like it's the weekend now

And we could pretend it all the time
Can't you see that it's just raining
Ain't no need to go outside
Ain't no need, ain't no need
Rain all day and I really really really don't mind
Can't you see can't you see,
You gotta wake up slow
