Lyrics
I'M A DREAMER
By JOHN NEIL MARTIN and LYNDA DOBBIN-TURNER
V1
I spend my time down by the sea
Soaking in her energy
Listening for the wisdom she sends through
The depth of all she understands
The Universe's great big plans
What I need to make my dreams come true
Pre-chorus
I'm soaking in the wisdom that she's sharing
Others think I'm simply sitting staring
Chorus:
I'm a dreamer (dreamer)
A dreamer (dreamer)
V2
All the places that I want to see
All the things I want to be
I see them in my vision crystal clear
I dream and I am on my way
I sing the words I need to say
Step through the looking glass I'm here
Pre-chorus
Each dream I dream is becoming more daring
Others think I'm simply sitting staring
Chorus:
I'm a dreamer (dreamer)
A dreamer (dreamer)
Bridge:
My dreams are going to guide my destiny
They will define my legacy
Oh, I wish you'd come and dream a while with me
Where skies are bluer than before
Where broken hearts are whole once more
Where battered souls don't feel so alone
Where we can all give peace a chance
No one's afraid to sing or dance
And everyone has somewhere they call home
Chorus:
I'm a dreamer (dreamer)
A dreamer (dreamer)
A dreamer (dreamer)
A dreamer (dreamer)
