Just A Dreamer

Sometimes the dreaming’s all I ever do

Sometimes I fall asleep and dream of dreaming too

My heart is open and my spirit free

Still I’m not where I want to be

I’m spending days with my head in the clouds

I’m walking circles and I get lost in the crowd

I can’t believe all of the time that’s gone

Still I’m not where I belong

 

Once I gave it all to have it all

I used to be more than just a dreamer

More than just a dreamer
It’s time to pick myself up from the fall

I want to be more than just a dreamer

More than just a dreamer

Head in the clouds

Help me find a way out

 

Sometimes I cry for all the things I’ve missed

Sometimes I wonder why it all has come to this

But I know there’s a reason for these tears

A reason why I’m still here

I’ve lived in shadows for the past few years

Dreaming in secret in the company of fears (though accompanied by fear)

But something’s calling that I can’t ignore

Something good my life is for

 

Once I gave it all to have it all

I used to be more than just a dreamer

More than just a dreamer

It’s time to pick myself up from the fall

I want to be more than just a dreamer

More than just a dreamer

Head in the clouds

Help me find a way out

Help me find a way out

 

Once I gave it all to have it all

I used to be more than just a dreamer

More than just a dreamer

It’s time to pick myself up from the fall

I want to be more than just a dreamer

What is Songwriter Diaries?

I've been writing songs since I was around 15 years old, well over half my lifetime ago. Figured it was time to be brave and share them somehow. Music has always been a saving grace in my life and my hope is that listening helps you in some small way, just as composing has helped me.
