Beyonce · Other Songs - Beyonce
When I'm here in your arms
I feel love in my heart I can breathe
not even reach in myself
I don't care I'm with you, you with me
I never wished on a star
when the star ain't got nothing
on me
cause I can wish you in the dreams
when I close my eyes
I feel like I'm alive
cause I can fall asleep
knowing that tonight
you'll be here with me
ohh,
(chorus)
let me know
if this is a dream
then I don't wanna know
(I don't wanna know)
cause I ain't 'bout to be without you babe
( without you babe)
ohh,
let me know
if this is a dream
then I ain't letting go
(I ain't letting go)
cause everything I love is about you babe
(about you babe)
so I rather be a dreamer
than wakinig up with nobody home
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
if it's the only way to be with you
then dreaming you is where I belong
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I think the luckiest girl
in the whole wide world
could be me
I get to be with the one
that I love anytime I please
I feel like I can stay forever
beyond eternity
it's like I'm where I'm supposed to be
when I close my eyes
I feel like I'm alive
cause I can fall asleep
knowing that tonight you'll be here with me
ohh
(chorus)
let me know
if this is a dream
then I don't wanna know
(I don't wanna know)
cause I ain't 'bout to be without you babe
(without you babe) ohh
let me know
if this is a dream
then I ain't letting go
(I ain't letting go)
cause everything I love
is about you babe
(about you babe)
so I rather be a dreamer
than waking up with nobody home
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
if that's the only way to be with you
then dreaming you is where I belong
oh oh oh oh
(bridge)
it took a lifetime
just to get with you
to be with you baby
and now that I'm here with you
I'm gonna take it in breathe you in, yeah yeah
and if I'm dreaming
let the dream be that I'm awake
cause I rather dream about you than
be livin' life without me & you
(chorus)

Dreaming - Beyoncé
Released as part of Beyoncé's 2008 album I Am... Sasha Fierce, 'Dreaming' serves as a poignant centerpiece on the alter-ego side of the record. The track exemplifies the artist's ability to blend R&B sensibilities with introspective lyricism, exploring themes of vulnerability and self-reflection. Produced with a polished, contemporary sound that defined the mid-to-late 2000s pop landscape, the song showcases Beyoncé's vocal range and emotional depth. It stands as a testament to her evolution as a songwriter and performer, capturing a specific moment in her career where she delved deeper into personal narratives alongside her established pop identity.
