Something Of A Dreamer Lyrics

The song Something Of A Dreamer is performed by Mary Chapin Carpenter in the album named State of the Heart in the year 1989 .



She used to watch him from afar, she used to dream about him
And she'd wish upon a star that one day he'd want her for his own
Throw caution to the wind and with a grin he'd take her home

She's something of a dreamer, something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak when she gives her heart to you

And she used to hear his voice at night, a sweet whisper from the shadows
Dancing with the back porch light and she used to feel him in the wind
His warm breath upon her neck and goosebumps up and down her skin

She's something of a dreamer, something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak when she gives her heart to you

She should have known by now but that's the foolish part of her
She should have seen somehow but a dreamer's never cured
When heartbreak fast approaches, when a love ain't truly love
He promised wine and roses and she thought that was enough

She's something of a dreamer, something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak when she gives her heart to you
She's something of a dreamer, something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak when she gives her heart to you

She's something of a dreamer, something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak when she gives her heart to you
