Description
I wrote this song for a musical back in the middle 1990s. It was first recorded by Aaron Paul and submitted to MacJams in 2004 (Dreams) as a rough draft demo with voice and piano. It won the first Macjams song writing contest. (It was the 317th song ever submitted on MJ).
Emily Rohm also recorded a version, posted under the title Dreams II, the 2205th post in 2004.
I then reworked the song as a jazz tune and had my friend Woody Mankowski sing: Dream III (2005). It was a lounge jazz version for piano, bass, drums, vocals. Woody plays sax on several other tunes I've posted here.
This song was first performed on stage in my show CREATURE. Victor Frankenstein's brother, Frederick, sings it over the corpse of his lover moments before Victor brings her (or, at least, parts of her) back to life.

Lyrics
Dreams.
What are you dreaming?
Do you know I am here, while you sleep?
What do you see when my hands hold you near?
When my breath touches you, can you feel?
Maybe when you awake, you'll know to never fear that I should go away.
You'll know I'm always near, when you awake.
When you awake to me.
When you awake to me, all the world's ache will fall away, like clay, cleaned away.
I'll give you all you need.
Make every dream come true.
All you can take from me. All I can give to you.
When you awake. When you awake to me.
What are you dreaming?
Do you know I am here, while you sleep?
What do you see when my hands hold you near?
When my breath touches you, can you feel?
Maybe when you awake, you'll know to never fear that I should go away.
You'll know I'm always near, when you awake.
When you awake to me.
When you awake to me, all the world's ache will fall away, like clay, cleaned away.
I'll give you all you need.
Make every dream come true.
All you can take from me. All I can give to you.
When you awake. When you awake to me.
