Danny:
Every day I wake up
And then I realize
How much better I was
When you were by my side
Did you ever leave my life (my life)
And now that you're gone
It kills me deep inside
Baby, why don't you come home
I'm trying to figure out
You were taken from my life (my life)
And I don't wanna
Wake up now
Gotta be away to
See your face somehow
If you wanna know why
It's cause I need you in my life (my life)
Chorus (Mia + Danny - fade)
I'm a dream catcher
Dream catcher
Dream catch your love
Let my dream catch ya
Dream catcher
Dream catch your love x 2
I keep a photo of you
Right by my bed side
Never seeing you there
Is ripping me up inside
Did you ever leave my life
And I don't wanna
Wake up now
Gotta be away to
See your face somehow
If you wanna know why
It's cause I need you in my life (my life)
Chorus
Can you catch it, catch it
If I let it fly away
Will you catch it, catch it
If it never comes back
Will you miss it, miss it
Miss it, miss it x 2
Chorus x 2
Catch your love
Catch your love
