The Dreamer

Early in the morning

dreams stay in my head

Better than my real life

I'd rather stay in bed

Then I can see you when I wake up

and think I've been mislead

Because I met up with you last night

but I was sure that you was dead

I don't mean it, I don't mean it

Dreams as you get older are easy to misplace

Quite hard to remember

but even harder to erase

Because they're mixed up with my memories

always make the same mistake

to think I'm talking with my best friend

but I just recognise your face

I don't need it, I don't need it

It only feels like home at night

or the morning when I'm sleeping light

It's a wonder that I wake up at all

Though the world might pass me by

it extends the days until I die

If you don't believe

you don't have dreams like me

'Cause I'm a dreamer

I'll never stop, I never will

Not that I could

Dreams can help me think

like I'm talking with my brain

But won't you come and wake me

when you think I've gone insane?

Then I'll distinguish what is mine

so my thoughts are not in vain

Then I can talk to you for real

and our love might still remain

'Cause I need it, 'cause I need it

Yes I need it, yes I need it

I'm still alive

I'm still alive

It'll be my fourth time, fifth time, sixth –

'Cause I'm a dreamer

I'll never stop, I never will

not that I could
