About This Quote

Queen’s song is about her own longing for love. She describes how this longing has made her sick and that she was addicted to it. The singer’s description of the places that can only be found in dreams gives us a sense of the longing she feels. These are the places that are real but just beyond our reach, yet they are always there, just waiting for us to catch them.
