I'm a Dreamer





Curbside Prophet's note been a while since i went all poetic.........I wrote this during the same old dull phase of my life,major contemplations,iffy situations and getting inspiration from the same source but its a wonder how it comes out so very different on paper......everytime.......this chap i write about is a mixture off a few special things and people i know.........but at the end of it all he's a dreamer and he isn't scared to say that.People are often scared to let their "dreamer" side get exposed..........they're too shy,he teaches us to take pride in dreams cause they start it all ,they end it all........

He'll be standing down the driveway,
Strumming his blue guitar
You'll see him below the oak tree,
You don't have to go too far,
If you hear closely,
You'll hear a familiar sound,

"I'm a dreamer,
I don't have to close my eyes to dream,
I stay up all night to soak the moonbeams,
I've got the prettiest roof,that's the starry sky,
I'm a dreamer ,
Cause i know dreams come true,they never die."

On Sundays i see him at the diners,
He sings to kick the summer blues,
He loves the winter breeze,
And the autumn hues,
Its the rains which make his songs deeper,
So he sings the same old song,
Cause he knows God is a natural weeper,

"I'm a dreamer,
I don't have to close my eyes to dream,
I stay up all night to soak the moonbeams,
I've got the prettiest roof,that's the starry sky,
I'm a dreamer ,
Cause i know dreams come true,they never die."

He says "Time is quite a traveller
It takes you to places you've never seen,
Or makes you someone you've never been,
When we dream we've got no time to see the time,
You've got yours, I've got mine,
So dream,dream on my friend
Cause dreams go beyond the human end"

He says,
"I'm a dreamer,
I don't have to close my eyes to dream,
I stay up all night to soak the moonbeams,
I've got the prettiest roof,that's the starry sky,
I'm a dreamer ,
Cause i know dreams come true,they never die."

PSST-I would've loved if it could be a song..........seriously..........and if it was then i would've loved if it was sung by Dave Matthews........with a nice job on the guitar and a dreamy,peaceful feel to it.....yeah!

this is really good,you should learn to play the guitar and start singing, cuz this could be an awesome song. who knows, you could be the next alanis morissette or someone better.
