Dreamer Words and music by Karen WillsonI was walking down the street today Feeling kinda blue, and kind-of lonely (oooo-ooo) I had another week of pay to earn, Mouths to feed: two boys, a wife named Jody (oooo-ooo) _Suddenly I stopped to listen To a group sing in a park They were just like me save one thing, The song played from the heart They sang of ships and fire-breathing dragon, And stars that sparkle just for them They sang of dreams_ to a man… Who'd forgotten how (oooo-ooo) I stood there on the sidewalk Watching the sky darken, as the day grew (oooo-ooo) I could see fifty years ahead of me, Same old job making ends meet… unfold Then the nightmare was shattered By a group singin' in a park They were just like me save one thing, The song played from the heart They sang of ships and fire-breathing dragons, And stars that sparkle just for them They sang of dreams_ to a man… Who'd forgotten how I searched each singer's face Some young, some not-so-young, some really(?) (oooo-ooo) And I felt welcome for a stranger Which frightened me: a loner, from the city And the whole world stopped to listen To a group sing in the park They were just like me save one thing The song played from the heart They sang of ships and fire-breathing dragons, And stars that sparkle just for them They sang of dreams_ to a man… Who'd forgotten how So I sat down on the grass Next to a young girl; laid my briefcase beside me (oooo-ooo) And as I sang with her I felt the dreamer, Killed by years of sameness, stir inside me And I found myself singing With a group sing in the park They were just like me as we sang together The song played from the heart We sang of ships and fire-breathing dragon, And stars that sparkle just for us We sang of dreams_ to a man Who'd just learned how We sang of ships and fire-breathing dragons, And stars that sparkle just for us We sang of dreams_ We sang of dreams!
