Like Dreamers Do Lyrics

[Verse]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do

[Chorus]
And I
Oh, I'll be there, yeah
Waiting for you, you, you, you, you, you

[Hook]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do
[Chorus]
And I
Oh, I'll be there, yeah
Waiting for you, you, you, you, you, you, you

[Hook]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
And I waited for your kiss
Waited for the bliss
Like dreamers do

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Paul McCartney (Writer)
“Like Dreamers Do was one of the very first songs I wrote and tried out at the Cavern. We did a weak arrangement but certain of the kids liked it because it was unique, none of the other groups did it. It was actually a bit of a joke to try your own songs… For you to write it yourself was a bit plonk-y, and the songs obviously weren’t that great, but I felt we really had to break through that barrier because if we never tried our own songs we’d just never have the confidence to continue writing.”
