Rick James (born James Ambrose Johnson, Jr.; February 1, 1948 – August 6, 2004) was an American singer, songwriter, musician and record producer, best known for being the major popularizer of funk music in the late 1970s and early 1980s thanks to million-selling hits such as "You and I" (1978), "Give It to Me Baby" (1981) and "Super Freak" (1981), the latter song crossing him over to pop audiences and selling over three million copies, later contributing to the success of rapper MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" (1990), which James sued to be credited for. James won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song with Hammer for the song, his only Grammy win. more »

When time allows my mind to sleep
When thoughts and visions of your being
Become as real to me as life
I then become aware, you are there
With eyes closed, I can taste everywhere
Your eyes, your lips, your breasts, your hair
Such a dream so real, such a love I feel
I want to stay there, forever and ever
In the realms of this dream
Oh Dream Maker, oh weaver of magical dreams
Make this dream come true tonight

Dream Maker, make my dream come true tonight
Let me take her to the highest heights that we can reach
Dream Maker, make my dream come true tonight
Let me take her to the highest heights, yeah, yeah

I'm not the kind of man who don't like to please, no
You don't have to ask me
To get down on my knees for your love
I know I'm just a man, I do the best I can
If that ain't good enough
Then I'll get on up and try it again

Baby, your spirit's in me, even when you're not around
And oh, lord knows, when you're gone, I get chills
Visions of lovemaking become so breath-taking
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Dream Maker, make my dream come true tonight
Let me take her to the highest heights that we can reach
Dream Maker, make my dream come true tonight
Let me take her to the highest heights, yeah, yeah

Baby, I'm just a man with love on his mind
I don't like to make love too fast
Just do me slow, girl take your time
And when lovemaking's though and we're fast asleep
And my dreams of loving you
A fantasy minute with all I have in it

Baby, your spirit's in me, even when you're not around
(Not around, you're not around)
Lord knows, when you're gone, I get chills
Visions of lovemaking become so breath-taking
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Dream Maker, make my dream come true tonight
Let me take her to the highest heights that we can reach
Dream Maker, make my dream come true tonight
Let me take her to the highest heights, yeah, yeah

Oh Dream Maker, oh weaver of magical dreams
When we're awake, let it be love that we make
Until it's time again to dream
