Dreaming

This fun one came from attending a fiesta in Rio where this band played an attention-getting tune that Giselle tells me is of the Forro (4-haw) style. I tried to mimic the tune and capture its essence. Success was modest, I think. The lyrics are just something to help capture the mood.

Dreaming

Intro Bridge
Instrumental Bridge

Dreaming, scheming,
Believing I can find you
Wandering, searching,
Wondering if dreams come true

Dreaming tears reality down
Boundaries fall, shackles gone
Maybe I will find you there
Some place where no one would dare

Bridge 2
B-V-B Instrumental
Bridge 3

Scheming to bend the rules a bit
Step outside where I think I fit
Maybe I can find a way
And you’ll appear. Maybe today. 

Bridge 4
Bridge Instrumental

Believing says that I can fly
My wings of mind will touch the sky
Maybe no one else can see
It’s all so simple to me

Bridge 5

I love her. She loves me
It seems we were meant to be
So, dreaming, scheming, believing
Has worked out real well, hee hee!
