Sometimes When I'm Dreaming

Roland of Gilead · **Posted:** May 25, 2008 7:19 pm

All the friends I believed in,
I believed in for a while.
They had their flair,
They had their style.
But nobody quite
Got it right;
Nobody knew
Just how it feels to be
Me.

Chorus:
But sometimes when I’m dreaming,
(And I dreamed a lot these days)
I need someone who understands,
Who leads me through the haze
It’s only when I’m dreaming
That I fall in love for real,
But I wake up screaming,
Sometimes when I’m dreaming.

And it’s now that I need a friend,
I reach out for the phone,
Nobody’s there, nobody’s home.
Though it may not be right,
To give up the fight,
I’m sailing away,
Now I’m on my own
Alone.

[Chorus]
But sometimes...

But I wake up screaming,
Sometimes when I’m dreaming.

Thanks Hans, that is definately one of my favourite tracks, in fact I actually wake up to it each morning at 7 am.

Incidentally for a lot of you keen photographers, most of the beautiful scenes shown in that video we photographs which were entered in the very first photograph competition I organised on Melualand.

Not to forget that's a cover.

This is the orginal version of the Mike Batt composition (abot 1984):

Wonderful song!

It always reminds me at a song of a musical but I don't guess which one. :scratch:

I liked this song when I first heard it, but I haven't heard it for a while. Have to listen to it again :approve:

A song which is, I'd say, efficient. I mean this is a lovely song that is pleasant to listen to, but I miss the magic that could make that song a amazingly great song.

Do you prefer Agnetha's version? :music:

Another beautiful written song that glows with Katie's voice. Not among my top favourites (aka in heavy rotation) but still nice to hear.

No, Katie is better!! Agneta sings it without any emotion, and Katie brings the tears in my eyes. For me a Katie Top 10 hit!!!

After more hours of listening to Piece by Piece album, I admit this song is lovely. I like it more than before, especially the phrasing of Katie and her so great command of tempo.

AFAIC, it makes me happy every time I hear it. The only, what makes me sad is, that Katie never sung it live

We could organise something like PinkPop, but for Katie fans.

Cause one night is too short.

Uaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. KEWA just fainted

This song is truly beautiful.. Describes my secret life, the world in my head, when I try to escape from everything else.

But nobody quite
Got it right;
Nobody knew
Just how it feels to be
Me.

But sometimes when I’m dreaming,
And I dream a lot these days
I meet someone who understands,
Who leads me through the haze

Especially in those lyrics, Katie shows her unique ability to bring live to a song. She puts so much emotion in it, that you feel every word she sings. Only Katie is able to reach that.

meiisa · **Posted:** Feb 13, 2009 2:24 pm

Yes KEWA, that's one of the many things that make her stand out! Perhaps the most important thing.

Yes, the way, Katie sings Sometimes, when I'm dreaming, is exactly the way only brilliant singer and performer can do. Katie lives that song and every note reaches directly the soul. When Katie one day sing that song live, I'm sure, I cry

ania69 · **Posted:** Mar 7, 2009 8:57 pm

not the one i listen to the most. But...

Sometimes when i'm listening
and i'm listening to it a lot these days
I need someone who understand me
how i love lyrics and her guitar's plays
and also when i'm listening to it
that i get so sad as well

I can totally relate to this lyrics.. I love the song, it's so beautiful. And it absolutely describes how I feel sometimes.
