I'm a Dreamer Aren't We All 1929

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 19 Mar 2005

Aren't we all in search of happiness?
To each one it means a diff'rent thing.
To some it's wealth, to some it's health,
to some it's only what love can bring.
Please don't blame me if I'm human, too.
I'm the same as you, and you, and you!

I'm a dreamer, aren't we all?
Just a dreamer, aren't we all?
In my dreams each night, it seems,
my sweetheart comes to call.
He's so charming, strong and tall,
it's alarming, how I fall.
He's ideal! But then he isn't real,
and I'm a fool! But aren't we all?

I'm a dreamer, aren't we all?
Just a dreamer, aren't we all?
In my dreams each night, it seems,
my sweetheart comes to call.
He's so charming, strong and tall,
it's alarming, how I fall.
He's divine! But then he can't be mine,
and I'm a fool! But aren't we all?

Aren't we all pretending constantly
that we are the ones we hope to be?
Our fortunes hide right here inside,
and we imagine reality.
Often times I leave real things behind,
and hide within a corner of my mind.

I'm a dreamer, aren't we all?
Just a dreamer, aren't we all?
In my dreams each night, it seems,
my sweetheart comes to call.
He's so charming, strong and tall,
it's alarming, how I fall.
He's ideal! But then he isn't real,
and I'm a fool! But aren't we all?

I'm a dreamer, aren't we all?
Just a dreamer, aren't we all?
In my dreams each night, it seems,
my sweetheart comes to call.
He's so charming, strong and tall,
it's alarming, how I fall.
He's divine! But then he can't be mine,
and I'm a fool! But aren't we all?
