Alice, your dream is quite rich with symbolism and emotions tied to your past and present experiences. The presence of Steve, your childhood crush, already sets the stage for a deep and meaningful exploration of your subconscious. Singing 'Crazy for You' by Adele reflects your emotional connection to Steve, and the fact that he sings with his eyes closed suggests a sense of vulnerability and intimacy. The act of stitching the lyrics with his hands could symbolize a desire for connection through shared activities or talents, reflecting the intricate ways in which you both process and express your emotions.
The school bus setting may represent a journey or a transition period in your life, possibly hinting at a desire to revisit or resolve feelings from your past. Your interaction with Steve, where you both discuss how you move your hands to the beat while singing, signifies a mutual understanding and a shared emotional language that you both comprehend. This connection, even in the dream state, highlights a deep, unspoken bond and mutual respect for each other's creative expressions.
Your surprise at Steve's singing ability and his astonishment at your singing talent points to a theme of hidden potentials and unacknowledged talents, both in yourself and in others. The snarky comment about your Tourette's and how you sang as a coping mechanism indicates a complex relationship with your own past and how you perceive it. This could be your mind's way of reconciling past insecurities with your current self-assurance.
The background music of 'Don't You Remember' by Adele playing in your mind, unheard by Steve, suggests an internal dialogue or longing that remains unexpressed. This melody signifies a deeper emotional narrative that you are aware of but have not fully communicated. Your intention to sing it for Steve before waking up implies an unresolved desire to share your true feelings and experiences with him, bridging the gap between your past and present self.
Lastly, the context of having a crush on Steve and your role as a 'teacher' in your childhood interactions could hint at a longing for recognition and validation from someone you admired. This dream seems to be urging you to acknowledge these unspoken desires and perhaps find closure or understanding within yourself. It's a beautiful, layered dream that speaks volumes about your inner world and your journey towards self-expression and connection.
