I’m just a dreamer Sometimes, deep in the dead of the quiet nights I have laid down my deep old plans quietly like the dead Visions of that which is ought to be creep in, sneakily Like a thief in the night they sneak into my quiet sleep I’m clueless I’m just a thief stealing from beyond the steep As I realize I’m already at the crack of dawn I realize I cannot let my night’s vision down I battle between pulling my visions to this time Or dragging my being to the time of my vision One way or another, the visual becomes clearer I kick yesterday’s old, aching and tired corpse out of me And I breathe in a new determination into me I begin to make that which is ought to be, be People begin to call me a genius O, dear you people, I’m just a dreamer! A visionary who sees visions I’m not even sure if my visions will wake me to reality Any day now And any night, for now, I’m just a dreamer! Mongi C. Nkabindze

I'm just a dreamer
I’m just a dreamer Sometimes, deep in the dead of the quiet nights I have laid down my deep old plans quietly like the dead Visions of that which is ought to be creep in, sneakily Like a thief in the night they sneak into my quiet sleep I’m clueless I’m just a thief stealing from beyond the steep As I realize I’m already at the crack of dawn I realize I cannot let my night’s vision down I battle between pulling my visions to this time Or dragging my being to the time of my vision One way or another, the visual becomes clearer I kick yesterday’s old, aching and tired corpse out of me And I breathe in a new determination into me I begin to make that which is ought to be, be People begin to call me a genius O, dear you people, I’m just a dreamer!

Having one huge dream in your life, that you keep chasing. You're direly eager to see it transform into reality. But you end up thinking, maybe it's literally supposed to remain a dream
