Dreaming of You (Selena)

Dreaming of You by Selena is a song used in Siblings In Action.
== Song Info ==
This song was released by Selena Quintanilla-Perez, an American Tejano singer, in 1995, in her final album Dreaming of You. Selena was also known for her songs "Como La Flor," "Baila Esta Cumbia," and "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom."
== Uses In-universe ==
In the episode Disneyland Alone: The Day Before, this song plays in the scene where Flora's Spanish class is finishing Selena: The Movie. Flora immediately starts crying upon finishing the movie, something their classmates and teacher take notice of. They (Flora) quickly calm down, though, and finish class as normal, before heading back to the choir room to discuss the final details of the Disneyland trip.
Several times throughout the series after this episode, Flora plays this song in their headphones. They also choose this song for their Selena tributes that they later post on their social media, later even adding it to their work playlist. They later sing it with Makini, ending with the two sobbing into each others' arms.
This song was later used in the 5-year finale anniversary special.
== Uses Out-of-universe ==
The song is well-known for being one of Selena's final songs, which played at the end of her 1997 biographical film during the scene of her family, friends, and fans' reactions to her (off-screen) death. The song, which was released posthumously, quickly became popular and reached several top charts. In the documentary series Selena: The Series, this song plays in the finale when Selena's family listens to her final song.
This song has been used in another one of Zel's fanfics, Beyblade Burst Dance Off.
== Lyrics ==
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star
That somewhere you are thinking of me too
'Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
'Til tomorrow
I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
Dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you ever see me (see me)
And I wonder if you know I'm there (am I there? Am I?)
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what's inside?
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
But so far
All I have are dreams of you
So I wait for the day and the courage to say
How much I love you, yes I do!
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
'Til tomorrow
I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
Dreaming about you and me
Corazón (I can't stop dreaming of you)
No puedo dejar de pensar en ti (I can't stop dreaming)
Cómo te necesito (I can't stop dreaming of you)
Mi amor (cómo te extraño)
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe
That you came up to me
And said, "I love you"
I love you too!
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
'Til tomorrow ('til tomorrow) and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
Dreaming with you endlessly (dreaming with you, tonight)
With you tonight (I want you to know I'll be holding you tight)
And there's nowhere in the world where I'd rather be
Than here in my room
I'll be dreaming (endlessly) of you tonight (endlessly)
And I'll be holding you tight ('til tomorrow)
Dreaming with you tonight (endlessly, endlessly)
Dreaming (endlessly)
