LMTD (Dreamin') was composed in an apple orchard whilst Charleesa was picking fruit to supplement her travel fund. She was leaving for India in a few weeks and the lyrics are about the memories of the special place she stayed in during her first journey to the magical land and her dreams of how it would be when she was back there again.
LMTD (Dreamin') was the first song that was recorded in the studio and it's the one with the smooth jazz flavour from her collection.
Made at Cosy Studios in England with guitarist Guy Fitz
Lyrics
Leave me to dream, let me be, let me see
I can see everything how I want it to be
Eyes tight shut; yes I can picture it now
Satiny sky, low gliding eagles, sun breaks through the clouds
Dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Oh I'm dreaming all day
Thoughts collide, then disappear; I can't catch up
But why would I want to, I don't want to wake up
Leave me to dream, I don't want to wake up
Leave me to dream, I don't want to wake up
Don't wake me just yet, I wanna stay a while
And contemplate life and love before it gets too late
Dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Dreaming, I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming
Oh I'm dreaming again
Dreamin, oh dreamin, dreamin – You caught me dreamin again
Can you feel the heat arising, It's the break of day
Quick grab the stardust 'fore it blows away
Leave me to dream, I don't want to wake up
Leave me to dream, I don't want to wake up
So if you see me drift off, then you'll know what to do
Don't disturb me, don't distract me, and for this I'll thank you
Leave me to dream, leave me to dream, leave me to dream
I don't wanna wake up
Leave me to dream, I said leave me to dream, leave me to dream
I don't wanna wake up
So don't you try to turn me from this beautiful dream
The things that make me happy are the things that I'm seeing
I don't wanna wake up, don't wanna wake up, don't wanna wake up, I don't wanna wake up
I don’t wanna wake up oooohhh
I don't wanna wake up yeahhhh
Don't wanna, don’t wanna; don’t wanna,
No I don't have to wake up
I don't have to wake up
Oooohhh ohhhooohhh x4
Yeahayeahyeah
