Little Red Man
American flag wraps round the pole
And the little red man is taking control
The man with the puppet
Starts to juggle your dreams
And the world that you live
May not be what it seems
Hold onto sorrow, it constantly lies
And the things that I thought always kept me in stride
Smoke cigarettes till the light came to see
Read the fine print on the wrong guaruntee
Little red man
Youre kind of young
Now its time to retreat
Youre the right people, the wrong ones for me
Some turn to apples and lemons of spice
Wings of tomorrow will swallow your pride
Im just a dreamer, swimming in my mind
Im just a dreamer in my mind
Im just a dreamer, laughing into mine
Im just a dreamer in my mind
Drinking the sunlight
The salt from the sea
Youre the wrong people, the right ones for me
Circular motions and things that are found
Wings of tomorrow you wont hear a sound

Dream On

Dreamer
Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, youre nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said far out, - what a day, a year, a laugh it is!
You know, - well you know you had it comin to you,
Now theres not a lot I can do
Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer;
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no!
I said far out, - what a day, a year, a laugh it is!
You know, - well you know you had it comin to you,
Now theres not a lot I can do.
Well work it out someday
If I could see something
You can see anything you want boy
If I could be someone-
You can be anyone, celebrate boy.
If I could do something-
Well you can do something,
If I could do anything-
Well can you do something out of this world?
Take a dream on a sunday
Take a life, take a holiday
Take a lie, take a dreamer
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream along...
Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, youre nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
Oh no!

A Poem of Many Dreams...
Middle class dreams
Can only assume wings
And fly across fancy-sky
Dreams remain dreams
Dreams with wings
Fly away beyond...
Dreams absorbed
Remain within
To follow the dreamer
Dreams dead
Turn into ghosts
Suspended in the air
They pervade mind's grave
Haunting the dreamer in the night...

Dreamer
Ive got a dollar deal hidden
Down in my shoe
So listen friends
I tell you what Im gonna do
Im gonna run up
The road of mystery
Hangin by a thread to a fantasy
A background black
Showing my face
Buried in the image
Of an empty space
Im back on my feet
Getting no sleep
Makin it all mine
Give me a chance
To follow the bands
Waitin for the sunshine
Husslin my will
In a bar downtown
And f it dont work out now
ll keep movin around and around ...
Tll Im back on my feet
Getting no sleep
Makin it all mine
Give me a chance
To follow the bands
Im waitin for the sunshine, yeah
A dreamer, a dreamer
Hangin around
A dreamer, a dreamer
Trying to hitch a ride
A dreamer, a dreamer
Hangin around
A dreamer, a dreamer
When I turn my back
Youre by my side
Well I fought my way
Through the back-stage door
Staring at my goal
Till my eyes get sore
And working my way
Through the little I say
Caring no less just
The light of the day
A background black
Showing my face
Buried in the image
Of an empty space
Im back on my feet
Getting no sleep
Makin it all mine
Give me a chance
To follow the bands
Im waitin for the sunshine, yeah
Just a dreamer ...
When I turn by back
Youre by my side
Dreamer ...

Beautiful Dreamer
Written by natalie cole
Beautiful dreamer, you are like magic to me
cause you share all your love
And your life and your love is so fine in my life
Its just what Ive been looking for
Searching for and you care
Beautiful dreamer, not an illusion to me
You know I can tell by the way that youve taken my hand
In a moment of sadness your gladness is there to surround me
Astound me and you care
Ive seen all the people (waiting at the station)
Waiting at the station
(no imagination) no imagination
Theyre too busy doing nothing
Making all kinds of arrangements
(nothings really) but nothings really changing them
(changing them)
Theyre (theyre) still asking why (why) their well is dry
I tried to tell them that love is the answer
They need a beautiful dreamer
If I could Id share you with them
Oh, but you know it took so very long to find what Ive needed
And my greatest obsession is doing my best
Just to keep you and love you cause you care
Youre one in a million
(always giving into) always giving in to
(me whenever I begin to) me whenever I begin to act
A little like Im crazy
Still (still you never faulter) you never faulter
(never try to alter) or never try to alter my integrity
How I could I not be proud to have your wisdom
Youre such a beautiful dreamer (beautiful dreamer)
You are like magic to me
cause you share all your love
And your life (and your life)
And your love is so fine
(so fine in my life) in my life
And you know its just what Ive been searching for
Looking for and you care
(beautiful) beautiful dreamer (dreamer)

The Man Who Knew
The Dreamer visioned Life as it might be,
And from his dream forthright a picture grew,
A painting all the people thronged to see,
And joyed therein -- till came the Man Who Knew,
Saying: "'Tis bad! Why do ye gape, ye fools!
He painteth not according to the schools."
The Dreamer probed Life's mystery of woe,
And in a book he sought to give the clue;
The people read, and saw that it was so,
And read again -- then came the Man Who Knew,
Saying: "Ye witless ones! this book is vile:
It hath not got the rudiments of style."
Love smote the Dreamer's lips, and silver clear
He sang a song so sweet, so tender true,
That all the market-place was thrilled to hear,
And listened rapt -- till came the Man Who Knew,
Saying: "His technique's wrong; he singeth ill.
Waste not your time." The singer's voice was still.
And then the people roused as if from sleep,
Crying: "What care we if it be not Art!
Hath he not charmed us, made us laugh and weep?
Come, let us crown him where he sits apart."
Then, with his picture spurned, his book unread,
His song unsung, they found their Dreamer -- dead.

What Do You Need?
What do you need from me tonight?
I feel you look right through me now
I cant pretend its all right
Maybe well find a way somehow
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always feel so wrong?
[chorus]
What do you need from me tonight?
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Fear makes you fragile darlin
Hate is so heavy when youre weak
Now were both lost in anger
When were alone well find some peace
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always seem so wrong?
What do you need from me tonight?
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Why do we need to turn it on?

Oh, Dreamer.
Oh, dreamer,
Dream of paradise
Away from pain and care,
Where people thrive and prosper
Without a ruffle of their hair.
Oh, dreamer,
Dream of happiness
For all who live upon our land
As they mingle with each other
While they give a helping hand.
Oh, dreamer,
Dream of love
The starting point of all,
In the many forms it appears
So mankind can all walk tall.
Oh, dreamer,
Dream of a miracle
To spread the whole world through,
So we all live in harmony
Then I`ll dream along with you.

Beautiful Dreamer Serenade
1 Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
2 Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
3 Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
4 Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd a way!
5 Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
6 List while I woo thee with soft melody;
7 Gone are the cares of life's busy throng, --
8 Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
9 Beautiful dreamer awake unto me!
10 Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea
11 Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie;
12 Over the streamlet vapors are borne,
13 Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.
14 Beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart,
15 E'en as the morn on the streamlet and sea;
16 Then will all clouds of sorrow depart, --
17 Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
18 Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!

A Dreamer’s Dream
My dream is to become a dreamer,
a dreamer who all his wishes will come true one day,
a happy dreamer who wishes the happiest and best things to all dreamers’ dreams,
a dreamer who wishes to change this dangerous world to a better world,
A world without racism, discrimination, segregation, and brothers killing their brothers,
But yes, a dreamer who wishes this world to change into a paradise,
A world that everybody will respect, every dreamers dreams.

Beautiful Irish Dreamer
Beautiful dreamer who wake in the morn
Love and sweet passion, wait here with the dawn
Sounds of the morning, come with the day
Ill' kiss your sweet lips, here in the hay
Beautiful dreamer the Queen, for whom i do long
Lie in the soft sunlight, on this beautiful day
Soft is your heartbeat, that beat so strong
Beautiful dreamer, for whom i do long
Beautiful dreamer, who bathe in the sea
Like Mermaids sunbaking, on a rock made for thee
Over the water my love is born free
Beautiful dreamer girl of my song
Beautiful dreamer for whom i do long
Life is so sad now, now that your gone
Love has left us gone with the dawn
Beautiful dreamer, let me dream on
Beautiful dreamer, please wait for me

I Wonder Why
Written by dave mason, franke previte, and tom fuller.
Its hard
When a love goes wrong
Picking up the pieces to go on
Our dreams
Are scattered in the wind
I wont let it take me under
Even though you tried...and...
I wonder why
Things go the way they do
Why people lie, and break a heart in two
I wonder why
Things go the way they do
Its strange
Strange the way I feel
Time is all I need to make me heal
Youre gone
And now Im all alone (now youre all alone)
Ill reclaim the thunder
Dry the tears ibe cried...still...
I wonder why
Things go the way they do
Why people lie, and break a heart in two
I wonder why
Things go the way they do
Now Im turning my back on confusion
I wont live in a world of illusion
Well the river stopped running through me
You didnt see what you did to me
Ive got to try to find, some kind of peace of mind
Youre just a mystery to me
Ill reclaim the thunder
Dry the tears Ive cried...still...
I wonder why
Things go the way they do
Why people lie, and break a heart in two
I wonder why
Things go the way they do

(Something Inside) So Strong
The higher you build your barrier
The taller I become
The farther you take my rights away
The faster I will run
You can deny me
You can decide to turn your face away
No matter 'cause theres,
Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Though youre doing me wrong so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone, oh no
Theres something inside so strong
Something inside so strong.
The more you refuse to hear my voice
The louder I will sing
You hide behind Walls of Jericho
Your lies will come tumbling
Deny my place and time
You squander wealth that's mine
My light will shine
So brightly it will blind you
Because theres,
Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Though youre doing me wrong so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone, oh no
Theres something inside so strong
Something inside so strong.
Brothers and sisters
When they insist were just not good enough
Well we know better
Just look 'em in the eye and say
Were gonna do it anyway.
were gonna do it anyway.
We're gonna do it anyway.
Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Though youre doing me wrong so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone, oh no
Theres something inside so strong.
Theres something inside so strong.
There's something inside so strong.
Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Though youre doing me wrong so wrong.

Dreamer In My Dreams
Well there's a dreamer in my dreams,
Swing from the beams,
(With a) light shining off the snow.
Well there's a singer in my heart,
Burning up the charts,
With songs about things we all know.
Well there's a blister on his brain,
That's driving him insane,
Cause all good things they gotta go.
Well there's a child on the way,
It could be any day,
But how this life will change him, that we don't know.
Well there's a child on the way,
One day, he's gonna say, "Ain't you my dad?"
Then he's gonna look down and smile,
and after awhile,
He'll say, "That's for sure son, cause you got my eyes."
Well there's a dreamer in my dreams,
He's hanging from the beams,
With light shining off the snow.
Well there's a blister on his brain,
It's driving him insane,
And all good things have to go, all right.
There's a dreamer in my dreams,
Swinging from the beams,
With a light shining off the lake.
Well, I know I made mistakes,
I'm passing then all on.
But I hope he gets some before there gone, all right.
Yeah, that's it.
Well there's a dreamer in my dreams,
Climbing up the back,
Of a car they used to call a Cadillac.
It's got a brand new set of keys,
It's got a new look, it's got a new look,
And his young one is gonna take it all away.
I believe it...
Well there's a dreamer in my dreams,
Swinging from the beams,
All wrapped up in my garage.
He's hanging from a bell,
He don't know what he's done,
Just don't forget to day goodbye when he's gone.
That's it

God Wont Get You
Sometimes in my sleep I hold you close against my skin
Wakin? up I wish that I could sleep and dream again
cause only in my dreams can I know how it might have been
But cheaters never win, their heartaches never end
But sometimes I get crazy as lovers often do
Trying to please him and wondering if shes pleasin? you
Though they have ever right to any part of us they choose
I still live just for you and our secret rendezvous
Chorus:
Torn between two lovers on the jukebox
Im thinkin? how I could have wrote that song
Wonderin? if God loves us when were cheatin?
Oh, but why he lets us feel things if its wrong
And I guess I should be gingin? rock of ages
Amazing grace and some of those good songs
But my cheatin? heart will tell on me tomorrow
If you think that God wont get you, well youre wrong
Thou shalt not commit, its written in the ten
The spirits always willin? but the flesh is weak again
And youre as close to heaven as I might ever fly
And angel in disguise
A wrong that feels so right
Chorus:
Torn between two lovers just keeps playing
I dont want to be right if lovin? you is wrong
Im wonderin? if God loves us when were cheatin?
Oh, but why we have to feel things if its so wrong
I guess I should be singin? rock of ages
Amazing grace and some of those good songs
But my cheatin? heart will tell on me tomorrow
If you think that God wont get you, well youre wrong
My cheatin? heart will tell on me tomorrow
If you think that God wont get you, well youre wrong

It Hurts Me Too
So run here baby, put your little hands in mine
Ive got something to tell you
I know youre gonna change your mind
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too.
I want you, baby, just to understand
I dont wanna be your boss, baby
I just wanna be your man
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too.
Now when you go home, you dont have to get along
Come back to me, baby
Where I live thats where you belong
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too.
I love you baby, and you know that its true
I wouldnt mistreat you, baby
Nothing in this world is like you
Yes, when things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
It hurts me too.
So run here baby, put your little hands in mine
Ive got something to tell you, baby
I know youre gonna change your mind
When things go wrong, so wrong with you
Dont you know, really, dont you know it hurts me too.
