Dreams: Images in Motion with a Musical Soundtrack

Dreams are visual, fantastic, and filled with emotional portent.  Dreams are images in motion. My dreams also contain dialogue and a musical soundtrack. The music in my dreams is always original. Waking from a dream with a tune in my head is an opportunity to write a new song. Sometimes the dream also contains a visual context for that song.  A dream is where I got the inspiration for my original song entitled “Dr. Dreamy“. This is the song that was in my head:

• I woke up from a dream last night, a vision in my head.
• A woman’s face I could not place, I lay awake in bed.
• Her hair was gold, her eyes were brown, her lips were cherry red.
• And on her face there was a smile, as she lay in my bed.
• I know, everything’s going to turn out alright, just trying to believe.
• You know, I will be waiting for you. You are the Girl of My Dreams.
• She whispered something in my ear. At least I think she spoke.
• Her words too soft for me to hear, and that’s when I awoke.
• I could not sleep another wink, I lay awake in bed.
• I tried to see her lovely face, remember what she said.
• I know, everything’s going to turn out alright, just trying to believe.
• You know, I will be waiting for you. You are the Girl of My Dreams.

Why do people dream, and where do dreams originate? I have my own theories, and there are a lot of investigators trying to answer this query. Our brains operate like computers, using electrical impulses and chemical transmitters. An important compound found naturally in our brain is DMT (Dimethyltryptamine).
