I, I saw a girl in my dreams
And so it seems that I will love her
Oh you, you are that girl in my dreams
And so it seems that I will love you
And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do
And I,
Oh I’ll be there, yeah
Waiting for you, you, you, you, you, you
You, you came just one dream ago
And now I know that I will love you
Oh I knew when you first said hello
That’s how I know that I will love you
And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do
And I
Oh I’ll be there, yeah
Waiting for you, you, you, you, you
You, you came just one dream ago
And now I know that I will love you
Oh I knew when you first said hello
That’s how I know that I will love you
And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do
Oh like dreamers do
Like dreamers do
Dreams and Longing: A Look at “Like Dreamers Do”

This seamless blend of dream and reality is echoed in the repeated refrain, emphasizing a longing that feels both magical and inevitable. The song’s gentle, repetitive nature reflects the anticipation and vulnerability of waiting for love to become real. By comparing his feelings to those of dreamers, the narrator underlines the universal desire to find love, and the bliss that comes with its fulfillment.
