Lyrics Joan Armatrading – Always In My Dreams

I visualized your face, I saw the perfect future
Those Freudian dreams, how they captured my desire
I dreamt of you ten times a night
And every image brought you closer

Now this is real
No counterfeits
You are not my imaginary friend
You are not just a voice inside my head
We’ve crossed the border
Between truth and dreams

I gave my dream your name and the story my dream told
Was as vivid and as real as you standing here
Dreams really do come true
And you’re always in my dreams

If I lost you I’d lose my taste for living
I’d be angry, temperamental, emotional
I’d cry the desperate cry for love
I’d say this was no supposed to happen
But in my dreams we shared a road
We chose to live our life with passion

This might sound strange
But I believe
The heart gives purpose to your life
The head gives way to the heart
Let’s live the life
We dare to dream

I gave my dream your name
And the story my dream told
