Dreamcatcher - The Sam Cronin Project

The love story of a man who falls in love with a woman who appears in his dreams, believing her to be his soul mate. He then spends the rest of his life in heartache as he wanders endlessly trying to find her in the real world. In the end she finds him, stating that he appeared in her dreams as well, and they realise that love really is a beautiful thing.

The tune for this song actually came to me in my sleep! ;)

Great thanks to my sister, Lucy Cronin, who provided the female harmony for the song, which I felt really brought the "Dreamcatcher" love story to life.

LYRICS:

Can't wait to get to sleep
Or lie awake with nothing to keep
Me from drifting away
And backtracking on my day

My pillow keeps my head real still
I don't need a sleeping pill
To send me away
And put my mind at bay

My imagination takes control of me
My eyes are closed but I can see your ... beauty

I caught you
In my dream catcher
Never knew you were
The girl in my dreams
You think I'm cute
Well hey right back at ya
Oooh the mind is a beautiful thing

I caught you
In my dream catcher
Never knew you were
The girl in my dreams
You're an angel
And no one can match ya
Oooh the mind is a beautiful thing

As I wake I see the world
Would never make such a beautiful girl
Come in to my eyes
And rip a hole inside

Will she ever come to me
In the shape of reality
So I can just touch her hair
And know she's always there

I lie awake and think of you and me
Nothing can take away from your ... beauty

I caught you
In my dream catcher
Never knew you were
The girl in my dreams
You think I'm cute
Well hey right back at ya
Oooh the mind is a beautiful thing

I caught you
In my dream catcher
Never knew you were
The girl in my dreams
You're an angel
And no one can match ya
Oooh the mind is a beautiful thing

When all is said and done
I see nowhere to dry my eyes
Was she the only one
To tend my heartfelt cries?

A piece of her inside of me
Is all I have to know
Should I set her free?
Or just never let it show

And then I live my life
Alone a lonely field
I see my future wife
A long for someone real

I try to stay awake
But I can't control my shattered eyes
Before I drift away
I see her as she lies

True love never dies!

I caught you
In my dream catcher
Never knew you were
The girl in my dreams
You think I'm cute
Well hey right back at ya
Oooh the mind is a beautiful thing

I caught you
In my dream catcher
Never knew you were
The girl in my dreams
You're an angel
And no one can match ya
Oooh the mind is a beautiful thing

Love is a beautiful thing...
