Dreamer
Faithless Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love and life and laughter
Is all I believe
My Savior is pure now
Because my lonely heart would bleed
I never learned how to hold love
And stay strong to love
Now I close my eyes now
And I'm dreamin' right where I belong

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer
Am I dreamer
Am I dreamer

Love and life and laughter
Is all I believe
My Savior is pure now
Because my lonely heart would bleed
I never learned how to hold love
And stay strong to love
Now I close my eyes now
And I'm dreamin' right where I belong

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer
Am I dreamer

Am I dreamer
Am I dreamer
Am I dreamer
Am I dreamer
Am I dreamer
Am I dreamer

Only those who lived then when this was an unstoppable banger can appreciate the atmosphere of the divine heights and harmonies of Rollo's synthesier. Just close your eyes, turn it up, and you are in Heaven! I mean Heaven, Villier Street, London (never mind the queue...) and remember what their tickets used to say: Dress To Impress!
BTW did you eve try to pronounce the lyrics from the chorus? DO SO!

Simon Hunter

Just been listening to Rollo and Sister Bliss's remix of "Fairground" by Simply Red. Came out not so long after this. I know Villier Street very well - I was homeless for over twenty years, most of that time in Central London.... Music is never far away when your in the city, there used to be lots of squat parties and unlicensed events that I could go to. Homelessness has its merits if your adventures and reasonably clever...

@Simon Hunter Incredible how differently lives can turn out.

This is pure orgasm or EARGASM for my senses and brain!!!! I can't describe It with words because it goes way beyond time and space and connects with my conscioussness converting my rational side into pure EMOTION!!! THAT'S AS FAR AS I CAN POSSIBLY GO TRYING TO DESCRIBE WHAT THIS MASTERPIECE MAKES ME FEEL!! THIS IS SO GREAT EVERYONE MUST HEAR IT!!!!

So music lovers, House addicts, and party people tell EVERYONE you know about this tune and play It LOUD!!!! We must promote the music we LOVE and also buy their ARTWORKS to support these TALENTED artists!!!! It's the BEST we can do for them for all these years and moments of musical pleasure and happiness!!!!

No.1 here in The UK only because of their remix. Same applies to Simply Red's - Fairground. Enough said. (Saw them off my face at Sziget Festival in Hungary and cried - waaaaay too intense especially as Salva Mea was their encore!) Sweet as.
