Liner notes

"Because I Dreamed You", a cult favorite with thousands of fans all over the world, widely played at weddings, is on Broadjam's TOP 10 Charts in Dreampop!
“Because I Dreamed You”, a recent finalist in the Great American Song Contest, was in the top 3 position at www.ilike.com for over 5 months and in number 1 position for over 3 weeks. “Because I Dreamed You”, written as a love song to my fiancé who was sick and died 2 days after the song was finished, is a romantic, haunting, magical and mystical fairy tale of a song about the power of dreams - a song that takes you away to a faraway place to a land of dreams and sweetness. The sparsity of the arrangement of upright bass, muted trumpet, and piano with the airiness and sensuality of the vocals make this song absolutely hypnotic and emotionally powerful and captured the bittersweet sensitivity of the emotions behind the song. Co-written with Grammy nominated Tommy Faragher.
Sounds like: Ingrid Michaelson,Norah Jones, Dido, Suzanne Vega

Lyrics

Because I Dreamed You
(Gail Vareilles and Tommy Faragher)

You’re heart and soul above the rest
You’re cutest when your hair is messed
I love that your belly’s almost fat
The way you scratch my back like a pussycat

All my life I was looking for you
I didn’t know how I was going to find you
So then I dreamed you, I had to dream you

I love the way you apologize
I’m always right in your eyes
I love the way when you’re with me
Pretty girls walk by but you don’t see

All my life I was looking for you
Then I knew how I was going to find you
I had to dream you I had to dream you

The sweetest dream, a dream come true
Out of the dream, and in came you
You hold my head while I fall asleep
Your love for me, a river deep

All my life I was looking for you
No one ever loved me like you do
Because I dreamed you, So glad I dreamed you
(2X)
