A Lyrical Poem

Put your music player on shuffle.
Write the first line of the first 10 songs.
The poems actually come out pretty cool!

Tach it up, tach it up
Just shoot for the stars
Dormido entre la hierba ya soñaba con tus manos (As I lay asleep / As I lay sleeping on the grass, I dreamt of your hands)
I don't want to talk it over anymore
When I was seventeen, it was a very good year
All the cool kids keep enthusiasm rationed
Sweet sweet wild honey bee
Let me be your mailman and I'll always come through
Nickels and dimes
She looked so much like a lady

I actually asked a friend. is it not correct?

OK, I'm gonna go a little grammar technical but the tense is not, that's why it sounds weird when I read it...

The ending -aba in this case hints it is past, not present. And "ya" would be already...

Forget it, sorry about the question, it's just my teacher mode talking...

I talked to my translation teacher, and we agreed this would be a more suitable version:

"As I lay asleep / As I lay sleeping on the grass, I dreamt of your hands"

:)
