Mr. Dream lyrics

Songwriters: Riddick, Makeba; Jerkins, Rodney Roy; Shropshire, Taurian Adoni

[Verse 1:]
You and I
Such a pair
If you would stop, stop running from what's real
You call them dreams
But they can hear you
Searching for love when it’s standing right here

[Hook:]
Why would you choose to reach out your hand
All those empty promises
You should understand
That you deserve better than…

[Chorus:]
I’m the only one that really loves you baby
Why you wanna take it all away
Cause you steady chasin after Mr. Dream
I’m the only one that really loves you baby
Can’t you feel me running through your veins
Cause you steady chasin after Mr. Dream

Come over here girl
He can’t love you girl
Come over here girl
If he don’t want to love you girl

[Verse 2:]
Look at you
Pulling your hair out
Losing sleep
Cause he never comes through
When I think it
But you don’t acknowledge
I read your mind
I know you’re better than you do

[Hook:]
Why would you choose
To reach out your hands
All those empty promises
You should understand
You deserve better than…

[Chorus:]
I’m the only one that really loves you baby
Why you wanna take it all away
Cause you steady chasin after Mr. Dream
I’m the only one that really loves you baby
Can’t you feel me running through your veins
But you steady chasin after Mr. Dream

[Verse 3:]
I wish that we could fly away
Take you from your misery (from your misery)
Girl I read your story (and it says)
Wanna dance under the sun
But you’re chasin after the wrong one

[Chorus:]
I’m the only one that really loves you baby (he can’t love you like I love you)
Why you wanna take it all away (no)
Cause you steady chasin after Mr. Dream (no, no)
I’m the only one that really loves you baby (only one that loves you baby)
Can’t you feel me running through your veins (can’t you feel me)
But you steady chasin after Mr. Dream
(He can’t love you, like I love you)
I’m the only one that really loves you baby
Why you wanna take it all away (he can’t love you)
Cause you steady chasin after Mr. Dream (chasin after Mr. Dream)
I’m the only one that really loves you baby (I’m your reality)
Can’t you feel me running through your veins (he’s just your fantasy babe)
Cause you steady chasin after Mr. Dream

Come over here girl
He can’t love you girl
Come over here girl
If he don’t want to love you girl
[repeat]
