To catch a dream
(Cerri Lee)

To catch a dream
Spin a web
Hang it high
Above your bed

In the wandering
Of your slumber
On Astral plain
Dreams beyond number

To find that dream
Be open hearted
Be patient now
The funs just started

Tip toe through
The mists of mind
No footprints here
For you to find

Dive you deep
Into sacred wells
Was it there ?
Could you tell?

Dreams are a tease
Elusive and flighty
You crave the illusion
That Tortures you nightly

Be still me freind
Be still i say
I will help
there is a way

The way to catch
What is¹nt there
Is simply say
I do not care!

Torture me not
In night or day
I will no longer
Hunt your way

Then return you slowly
To your bed
And in the morning
Check your web

If you love that dream
But are prepared to lose it
You may just find
It comes to you by it¹s own choosing.
